CAE’s ‘State of Culture’ report reexamines how culture is framed in national and European policies
The report also gathers insights from key stakeholders across the cultural and creative sectors on the major challenges and opportunities they face in the present world.
Culture Action Europe – the “network of networks” of which ARC is a member – has published the ‘State of Culture’ report; an outcome of a non-academic policy research initiative exploring how culture’s role and value are framed in national and European cultural policies. State of Culture also gathers insights from key stakeholders across the cultural and creative sectors on the major challenges and opportunities they face in the present world.
The report explores new pathways for positioning the cultural sector in response to the evolving social and political landscape by offering a deeper understanding of the current state of culture. It raises critical questions about the role of culture and the arts in society and examines how the cultural sector can effectively contribute to societal resilience and transformation. Additionally, the report provides fresh perspectives for advocacy and policy, renewing the language around cultural discourse and highlighting key messages to be addressed by both the sector and policy-makers.
