A couple of years ago, Professor Storytelling Moniek Hover and her team developed the narrative concept entitled Crossroads, life changing stories about 1940-1945 in view of the 75th anniversary of the liberation of the Brabant province.

They also developed a brand guide and storytelling workshops for the twenty different authors who rewrote 83 personal stories (drawn from over 800 stories that were collected in the Brabant) according to specific storytelling techniques. These stories were brought to audiences via a book, AR-videos, an exhibition of 75 scenes/models called "Stilllevens" by Rocco Verdult. 

Dr. Moniek Hover is currently a member of the Crossroads Advisory Board for the programme of Brabant Herinnert, the 80th celebration of the liberation. In the article below (in Dutch), programme director Femke Klein is interviewed about this new programme that still builds on the original approach of the Crossroads concept.
