This ENCATC Talk was the first of two special online events showcasing the results of ENCATC’s six newly established Focus Groups. These groups were set up as part of ENCATC’s strategic initiative to contribute to MONDIACULT 2025, bringing together experts from across our network to examine the future of cultural management and policy in light of the world’s most urgent challenges. The event represented an open invitation to our community to join us in the conversation to ensure these proposals reflect the diversity and depth of the cultural management and policy field. In this session, we unveiled insights and proposals from three Focus Groups: cultural rights, culture and education, and culture and climate action.
