Education as the Foundation for Inclusive Futures: a Reflection on the MONDIACULT Declaration

Gerald Lidstone, ENCATC President

The in-person meeting of the working group on culture and education focused on the MONDIACULT 2025 Declaration’s call to strengthen the relationship between culture and education as a foundation for an inclusive future grounded in diversity and human rights. Held in the frame of the 2025 ENCATC Congress, this event was the opportunity for participants to discuss the need to embed culture systematically across formal, informal, and non-formal education, recognising that cultural knowledge is transmitted by all parts of society.
