Policy seminar: Cultural heritage policies for a troubled Europe
http://cultureactioneurope.org/news/policy-seminar-cultural-heritage-policies-for-a-troubled-europe/

Europe is in trouble. The Great Recession has heavily hit Southern Europe
and has polarized the Continent between North and South. Growing
nationalism in many EU countries and the increasing division of national
societies provoke a tendency to fragmentation. Racism and xenophobia are
also on the rising nearly everywhere. The crisis is deep and manifold and
there are not simple remedies for it. But some of the most important
European troubles are cultural in nature and others, like the economic
ones, can be fruitfully connected to culture and cultural development.
Therefore, cultural policy presumably can play a significant role in
facing the current situation. The European Year of Cultural Heritage will
offer a strategic opportunity for highlighting the benefits of acting on
this field.

This policy seminar organized by CulturalBase, in cooperation with Culture
Action Europe and Bozar, aims to contribute to clarify the path that
cultural heritage policies should follow for better addressing the
challenges that Europe is confronting nowadays.

Date: 31 January 2017

Venue: Rotonde Bertouille, Bozar, Centre for Fine Arts, Ravenstein, 23,
1000 Brussels, Belgium

CulturalBase is a project funded by the European Commission in the
framework of the programme H2020. It is a social platform bringing
together researchers in many fields of the social sciences and the
humanities, practitioners from the socio-cultural and artistic sectors
(galleries, libraries, archives, museums, and other cultural
institutions), as well as policy stakeholders (at European, national
and/or local levels). CulturalBase aims to develop a research agenda and
policy guidelines in co-creation with stakeholders in the area of cultural
heritage, cultural identities and cultural expressions.
