Since January 2021, Caterina has been working for The Football Association (FA) as their Arts and Heritage lead on the UEFA Women’s EURO 2022.

Working with 10 Host City local authority partners; with the National Football Museum; Royal Pavilion and Museum Trust, Brighton & Hove; Gunnersbury Park Museum; The British Library; Libraries Connected; Sporting Heritage and the Canals and Riverside Trust, and in consultation with fans, she shaped an arts and heritage programme to celebrate the tournament and to spotlight the exciting and radical history of the women’s game. 

Having secured £500,000 from the National Lottery Heritage Fund and £800,000 from Arts Council England, and with match funding from Host City partners, The FA, and UEFA, she is now delivering a £3m programme which includes:

• The Supercompensation Cycle, a large-scale visual arts installation commissioned from Emma Smith, with producer Aldo Rinaldi.

• The composition of 11 new anthems co-created with communities and The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, one for each Host City along with a tournament anthem composed by Prof. Dr Shirley Thompson OBE.  The latter will be recorded by the Philharmonic joined by over 100 community members.

• Stadium for the Future (If I can’t dance I don’t want to be part of your revolution) a legacy project led by Idle Women to imagine a new safe green space for women to come together.

• An artist-led library programme created by Deborah Goatley-Birch

• A series of indoor and outdoor heritage exhibitions revealing the hidden story of the women’s game and engendering new contemporary collections on a local and national scale for museum and archive partners.

• A large-scale oral history and memory film programme to capture the stories of the women who pioneered the game, and their allies.

• A research programme to record, for the first time, all England Women games.

• A fan photography programme in partnership with Getty.
