Résumé
Veuillez résumer en maximum 3500 caractères les principaux résultats et défis de la mise en oeuvre de la Convention, ainsi que les perspectives d’avenir. Veuillez noter qu’il ne s’agit pas d’une introduction au rapport ni d’un sommaire commenté.

In Brazil, the 2005 Convention contributed for the establishment of national legal framework that sustain the public policies of protection and promotion of diversity of cultural expressions, such as Law nº 13018/2014, which institutes the “Cultura Viva” National Policy; Law Nº 12853/2013, which alters the legal framework of the copyright policy with the introduction of its collective management; Law nº 12761/2012 that institutes the Worker's Culture Programme, known as Vale-Cultura [culture voucher]; and its regulation, in 2015, by Decree Nº 5820/2006, which institutes the Brazilian System of Terrestrial Digital Television, with four new public channels.

The challenges proposed by the Convention have also contributed for the process of formulation of guidelines and reflections about the protection and promotion of cultural diversity in Brazil, by alliances and exchange with civil society about public cultural policies. It was also important to reinforce and expand the understanding and appreciation by the society at large of the role of developmental role of culture and, as a result, of public cultural policies as vectors of sustainable development.

One of the challenges for the implementation in Brazil of the 2005 Convention is the difficulty in establishing a process of effective integration among other government areas based on the transversal character of culture. Another challenge is the asymmetrical assimilation of the strategic principles and goals of the Diversity Convention by civil society and the federal spheres (Union, States and Municipalities), largely motivated by the fact that the expression "cultural diversity" was consolidated after the 2001 Universal Declaration of Cultural Diversity which is associated with cultural pluralism and human rights. Hense, the Ministry of Culture has been taking advantage of several opportunities to meet with civil society and raise awareness and debate about the Convention goals throughout the country.

For the near future, the government has been working toward the improvement of the National System of Cultural Indicators and Information, which collects, codifies and interprets data, offers methodologies and establishes parameters for measuring cultural activities and social cultural demands, allowing the formulation, monitoring, management and assessment of public policies for culture as well as cultural policies.

Décrire le processus de consultation établi avec l’ensemble des parties prenantes pour la préparation de ce rapport

The participation of citizens in the management of public policies and the government decisions has been one of the pillars of the policies of the Brazilian State, expressed, among other initiatives, in the institutionalization of joint committees. In the area of culture, the national culture conferences, the National Board of Cultural Policy (Conselho Nacional de Política Cultural), created in 2005, and the National Comission of Cultural Incentive (Comissão Nacional de Incentivo à Cultura) express it. The elaboration of this report was carried out by a Work Group of the Ministry of Culture and then submitted to the referred institutions for validation. This survey was conducted by means of the web platform of the National Board, and included a meeting held via web conference for further clarification about the report's coverage. The Work Group has also collected, with the collaboration of Observatório da Diversidade Cultural, a non-governmental organization that conducts research and action programmes involving cultural diversity and the challenges of the 2005 Convention.

Aperçu du contexte de la politique culturelle
Les Parties décrivent les principaux objectifs et priorités de leur politique culturelle en vigueur et l’impact de la Convention sur leur formulation ou reformulation. Elles rendent également compte des opportunités et défis rencontrés dans la promotion de la diversité des expressions culturelles dans l’environnement numérique.:

The new context generated by the growing impact of the digital environment over human relations brings a series of opportunities and challenges for the full achievement of freedom of expression and cultural rights. The expansion of the internet may contribute to the growing exercise of freedom of expression by facilitating the generation and dissemination of content, which, in its turn, favors the expansion of cultural diversity. However, it is essential to recognize that the main digital platforms operate as major public spaces of information circulation, with a strong tendency toward concentration, giving its controllers the power of decisively influencing the production and diffusion of culture in a global scale.

The subject surpasses national frontiers, taking on the condition of a global problem and therefore demanding global solutions. Aware of the relevance of the subject and its impact upon social and human development, the Ministry of Culture has been making efforts to discuss it in multilateral instances such as MERCOSUR (South Common Trade), UNASUR (Union of South American Nations), CELAC (Community of Latin American and Caribbean States), and OAS (Organization of American States) as well as international organisms such as WIPO (World Intellectual Property Organization). In those international forums, the Ministry of Culture has been constructing a joint strategy for tackling several matters of major social and economic impact regarding cultural rights on the internet. The subject involves sensitive aspects such as ensuring freedom of expression, access and diffusion of the diversity of cultural expressions, and the management of author's rights. Presently, the Ministry continues making efforts to open up new conversation paths with other relevant instances such as UNESCO, with a focus on the Cultural Diversity Convention, and the United Nations High Commissariat for Human Rights.

Política Nacional de Cultura Viva [“Cultura Viva” National Policy]

a. 2 Contexte de la mesure: 
POLITIQUES CULTURELLES ET MESURES
b. Objectifs clefs de la mesure: 

The Ministry of Culture defined social inclusion through culture as a strategic priority for the 2013/2014 biennial. With that, it became essential to consolidate and expand the “Cultura Viva” Program, created in 2004, and characterized as an integrated fostering policy, with the participation of partner federal organs as well as state, district and municipal governments and civil society.  This was achieved by means of Law no. 13018 of 22 July 2014, which represented the transformation of the “Cultura Viva” Program of the Ministry of Culture into a State Policy – the “Cultura Viva” National Policy.

Cradled on the democratic mechanisms of dialogue and participation, the Policy of  “Cultura Viva” has the following goals: i) to guarantee the full exercise of cultural rights by Brazilian citizens, providing them the necessary means and resources to produce, record, manage and broadcast cultural initiatives; ii) to stimulate social leadership in the elaboration and management of public culture policies; iii) to promote a shared and participatory public management cradled in the democratic mechanisms of dialogue with civil society; iv) to consolidate the principles of social participation in cultural policies; v) to guarantee the respect to culture as a civic right and a right to cultural diversity as a symbolic expression and as economic activity; vi) to foster existing cultural initiatives by means of the devices available to the Union, the States, the Federal District and the Municipalities; vii) to promote access to means of enjoyment, production and broadcasting of culture; viii) to boost cultural initiatives, with a view to the construction of new values of cooperation and solidarity, and to expand education tools with education;  ix) to foster the exploration, use and appropriation of the artistic codes and languages as well as public and private spaces made available for cultural action.

c.3. La principale caractéristique de la mesure: 

The instruments are: i) the Pontos de Cultura [Culture Points]: groups, collectives and private law businesses that are non-profits, which conduct cultural activities with local communities; ii) the Pontões de Cultura [Big Culture Points]: entities that articulate and train a certain number of Culture Points through exchange, fostering of cultural-artistic action, management training, digital culture, among others; iii) the National Register of Culture Points and Big Points – mechanism of insertion, certification, monitoring and assessment of the entities that are involved in this Policy. It is one of the Ministry's policies with greater capillarity and visibility in the national territory. There are Culture Points in all of the 26 Brazilian states and in the Federal District, as well as in over one thousand municipalities (19% of the total). Moreover, the policy has international repercussion, as it inspired the creation of similar policies in several countries in Latin America, such as Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica and Peru, among others. It also inspired the creation of the international cooperation program IBERCultura Viva, within the scope of the Iberian-American General Secretariat.

* “Cultura Viva” policy has acquired legal character with the edition of Law nº 13018/2014, by which it is instituted. It is supported by public funds from the federative entities – the Union, the states, the Federal District and the municipalities, and it is organized transparently, via public selection call notices.

* This policy was conceived to expand the access of the Brazilian population to means of cultural production, circulation and enjoyment, with a focus on diversity and civic impact. Both Points and Big Points organize bodies of civil society that function as beacons of culture, incorporating, even, an anthropological approach to the field, going beyond traditional cultural output, with an emphasis on transversality and shared management between the public authority and the community.

Oui
e. Quels sont les résultats attendus de la mise en œuvre de la mesure? : 

Before the edition of the “Cultura Viva” National Policy, it became evident that the Brazilian State lacked proper mechanisms to effectively fund and propel policies focused on the diversity of cultural expressions and their preservation aimed at the sustainable development of the country. It was, therefore, urgent and necessary to furnish the “Cultura Viva” program with well-designer legal instruments capable of guiding the consolidation of strategic goals founded on the exercise of cultural civic virtues.

* Considering the period between 2012 and 2015, the total amount of allocated resources in the implementation of the program that became the “Cultura Viva” Policy reached 71,385,029.05 USD.

It is a permanent instance of political-cultural action and representation, for the identification of demands and elaboration of proposals toward the development of cultural public policies and actions in the country. Its goals are: strengthen the Culture Points network; elaborate cultural policy and shared management proposals, especially referring to the “Cultura Viva” National Policy; propose new legal frameworks that reinforce the status of culture as a civic right, as well as to articulate, mobilize and contribute to the empowerment of forums, state and regional networks of Culture Points.

The “Cultura Viva” National Policy was set up in close collaboration with civil society, with shared management as one of its basic tenets, founded on the understanding that the beneficiaries of the Program are also essential actors for its management. Since the creation of the Program, in 2004, the administrative environment of this public policy includes mechanisms of representation and participation that are continuously improved, such as panels, committees, collegiates and boards.

It was verified during the implementation of the Program that the role of the Culture Points in our society transcends its stricto sensu cultural action. The “Cultura Viva” program has created a space for the strengthening of the leadership of managers of Points in their original environments, and for a broader construction of cultural policies. Beyond that, more recently the articulation with social and cultural movements has intensified, as well as the activation of independent networks and circuits.

i.2 Quelles ont été les principales conclusions?: 

Several studies have been conducted since the very moment of the creation of the “Cultura Viva” Program in 2004, including: i) Research in partnership with the Institute of Applied Economic Research (IPEA), in 2010, entitled Avaliação do Programa Arte, Educação e Cidadania [Assessment of the Art, Education and Civic Rights Program], based in a sample group of 526 Culture Points; ii) Research in partnership with IPEA, in 2011, entitled Cultura Viva: As Práticas de Pontos e Pontões [“Cultura Viva”: The Practices at Points and Big Points]; iii) Research in partnership with IPEA, in 2011, entitled Olhares sobre o Programa Cultura Viva [Views about the “Cultura Viva” Program]; iv) Other studies, academic researches and dissertations about the subject are listed in Additional Annex III.

One of the studies conducted was the research project entitled "Cultura Viva Program: social impact and transformations", by the Observatory of Cultural Public Policies of the University of Brasília, which reached the following conclusions: in many cases, the activities offered by the Culture Points are the only cultural options within a radius of many municipalities; the actions perpetrated by the Culture Points go beyond offering courses to meet a local demand, because many of them act directly upon the rescuing of lost, denied or hidden values and identities. With a few exceptions, the courses involve non-hegemonic cultural practices that cannot traditionally be found in official art schools, such as hip hop, capoeira, circus and Afro-Brazilian fashion, among others. This offering of diverse courses in the cultural field expands the possibilities of professional placement of people that had never thought about them before and end up effectively working in the area; even when the Culture Points are dedicated to audiovisual and film courses, their productions always appreciate local cultural output (peripheral in terms of neighborhoods or cities); the non-interference of the State in the choices of which actions can or should be conducted at

i.3 Quels ont été les indicateurs utilisés pour déterminer son impact ?: 

In 2015, an agreement between Unesco and the Secretariat of Citzenship and Cultural Diversity provided resources for the hiring of consultants to assess the state of the art of the process of implementation of the “Cultura Viva” National Policy, which should include the production of diagnoses on the functioning status of state and municipal networks and pari passu monitoring of the process of implementation of the National Register of Culture Points and Big Points, as well as the proposition of indicators and a plan for the training of managers to provide for the Policy's monitoring process itself.

The scope of the measure is national and its nature is legislative and regulatory (Law nº 12485/2011; Law nº 11437/2006 and Normative Instruction no. 100/2012). The Brazil of All Screens Program, launched in July 2014, was created to act upon the expansion of the market and the universalization of access to Brazilian audiovisual works, with the aim of turning the country into a relevant center of production and broadcasting of audiovisual content, and was formulated by the National Cinema Agency, in partnership with the Ministry of Culture, with the collaboration of the audiovisual sector through their representatives in the Management Committee of the Sectorial Fund for Audiovisual.

The program uses resources from the Sectorial Fund for Audiovisual but juxtaposes different modalities of financial operation and articulates public-private partnerships, proposing new business models. Added to the lines of funding operated by the Sectorial Fund for Audiovisual since 2002 were: initiatives with the production line for public channels (community, academic, educational and cultural) in the 27 states of the country; the new Automatic Financial Support System, which injects funding in the companies that show commercialization results, viabilizing their planning; international partnerships and low budget and documentary call notices through activities coordinated by the Secretariat of Audiovisual of the Ministry of Culture; incentives to regional fostering policies by unprecedented partnerships with local governments.

Policy of quota for the Brazilian audiovisual output

a. 2 Contexte de la mesure: 
POLITIQUES CULTURELLES ET MESURES
b. Objectifs clefs de la mesure: 

The goal of the quota is to ensure the presence in the local market of audiovisual output produced in Brazil, in a healthy balance with international output.

In film, the Screen Quota is aimed at guaranteeing a market share for the national cinema output to counter the massive presence of foreign content in cinema screens. By allowing for a minimum outflow of Brazilian output, it expands the access by the audience and promoted the diversity of the titles in the theaters.

The establishment of mandatory screening of Brazilian audiovisual works on private paid television also has the goal of guaranteeing a potential minimum demand, which stimulates national production of national content geared toward this market segment.

c. Quel(le) est: 
c.1. le périmètre de la mesure: 
National
c.2. la nature de la mesure: 
legislative
regulatory
c.3. La principale caractéristique de la mesure: 

It's a national measure of legislative and regulatory nature. On theaters, the Screen Quota has legal provision through Article 55 of Provisional Measure 2228-1/2001. The requisites and conditions of validity for meeting the Quota are defined by Normative Instruction nº 88 of the National Cinema Agency, updated by Normative Instructions nº 113, of 18 December 2013; 117, of 31 December 2014; and 122, 9 December 2015. The number of days of screening and minimum diversity of Brazilian titles to be show in movie theaters in the country throughout the year are fixed in a yearly basis. The decree for the 2016 Screen Quota has determined that movie theaters with one screen must show Brazilian movies for a minimum of 28 days for the year – and at least three different titles. The Screen Quota varies according to the size of the movie theater complex up to a maximum of 63 days (on average) per screen, for complexes with seven screens – which must show a minimum of 11 different national titles.

For television, Law nº 1437/2006, Law nº 12485/2012 and Normative Instruction nº 100/12 establish two types of quotas: (i) Programming Quota: on qualified space channels, a minimum of three hours and thirty minutes per week of content aired on prime time must be Brazilian and integrate qualified space, and half must be by independent Brazilian production companies; (ii) Package Quota: for each three channels with qualified space feature in each cable package offered in the membership, at least one must be a Brazilian channel of qualified space, and at least one third of this minimum share of Brazilian channels must have programming by an independent Brazilian provider. The company offering the package will have the obligation of meeting those demands up until a limit of 12 Brazilian channels of qualified space. Out of the Brazilian channels that are part of packages, at least two must air a minimum of 12 daily hours of audiovisual content created by a Brazilian independent production company, three of which must be on prime time.

The main goal of the measure – Law nº 12853 of 14 August 2013, alongside Decree 8469/2015 as well as the ordinances and normative instructions that regulate it – was to alter the Copyright Act (Law nº 9610/1998) concerning the inclusion of collective management of those rights. With the new legal instruments, the associations of copyright charges contracted the obligation of meeting universal charging parameters and of guaranteeing more transparency to the rightholders regarding registry and distribution of collected amounts.

At the same time, from the regulation of the Act, the Direction of Intellectual Rights of the Ministry of Culture also gained greater monitoring power, with a more concrete role on the mediation and arbitration of litigations.

e. Quels sont les résultats attendus de la mise en œuvre de la mesure? : 

One of the challenges regarding copyright in Brazil concerns the need to make alterations upon the reigning legislation, especially the items pertaining to limitations. Those alterations would fulfill the goal of promoting access to protected works from Brazil and elsewhere, especially those with strategic value for the preservation of memory and the appreciation of the cultural wealth of Brazil and the world. This measure implicates the definition and establishment of regulatory and arbitration mechanisms that allow, for instance, for the liberation of access to fundamental works for the national and universal culture and memory that are out of circulation, even for commercialization, due to legal deadlocks with producers, editors and authors.

Another challenge is the search for balance between the promotion of diversity of access to the works and the fair remuneration of the artists and authors, considering the technological changes that have been modifying the mechanisms of sale and distribution of music, film and books. Presently, the most notorious case is that of the streaming services. That is because, considering the fast pace with which technologies change, one must considered the demand for the creation of instruments to guarantee that balance must be dynamic and based upon regulation as well as compatible mediation and arbitration rules. In that sense, it is necessary to establish rules and regulation mechanisms for the digital environment.

A first step stemming from this issue was the elaboration of a normative instruction that is under public consultation for the definition of rules for charging copyright in the digital environment. At the same time, the Directorship of Intellectual Rights of the Ministry of Culture has been actively participating on meeting and has set up a work group integrated by representatives of stakeholders with the aim of discussing, elaborating mechanisms that guarantee that the content offered in digital environments does not favor only what is interesting for the industry.

b. Objectifs clefs de la mesure: 

Known as Vale-Cultura, the Workers' Culture Program was created through Law nº 12761, of 27 December 2012 and regulated by Decree Nº 8084, of 26 August 2013. According to Article 2 of this Act, this program has the following goals: i) to allow for access to and enjoyment of cultural products and services; ii) to encourage visitation to artistic and cultural venues; iii) to encourage attendance to cultural and artistic events and shows.

c. Quel(le) est:

c.3. La principale caractéristique de la mesure: 

The Culture Voucher is a partnership of the Federal Government with businesses aimed at benefitting the Brazilian workers who have formal work contracts. It is, therefore, an institutional measure of national range. The benefit is granted to the worker through a magnetic prepaid card with a monthly credit of 14.79 USD. The amount, which is cumulative and has no date of expiry, can be used to purchase entry on theaters, cinema, museums, shows, the circus, or to buy CDs, DVDs, books, magazines and newspapers, or even to pay for monthly fees of cultural courses and workshops in the entire national territory. Social security taxes or compensation funds for time of service do not incide over the amount spent with the Culture Voucher by the companies that offer the benefit to their employees, and it is exempt of income taxes. Moreover, the beneficiary companies taxed over real profit may get a discount of up to 1% of their income tax because of the amount spent with the Culture Voucher.

For this particular program, services and products are defined as follows:

Cultural services: They are cultural and artistic activities provided by corporate entities active in the following cultural sectors: visual arts, performing arts, audiovisual, music, cultural heritage, literature, humanities and information.

Cultural products: They are artistic, cultural and informational material produced in any format or media by persons or businesses, whose characteristics fit the cultural sectors described above.

Participants of the program are: beneficiary companies (employers), its employees, receiving businesses (providers of cultural products and services) and card operators. The beneficiaries are the companies that offer the benefit to its employees and are granted the program's fiscal benefits. The receiving companies are the business entities licensed to receive the Culture Voucher as a mode of payment for a cultural service or product, such as movie theaters, concert venues, bookstores and other commercial establishments. Finally, the operators are companies authorized by the Ministry

e. Quels sont les résultats attendus de la mise en œuvre de la mesure? : 

The Culture Voucher is the first policy by the Ministry of Culture geared exclusively toward cultural expenditure. The expectation is that it will directly benefit, until 2020, 2 million workers with the Culture Voucher. With greater access to and enjoyment of cultural services and goods, it is an instrument for the increased well-being and quality of life of the recipients. Indirectly, the Culture Voucher fosters the market of cultural products and services by making available a portion of the workers' income for the sector, making cultural offers attractive to the recipients.

* The management of the Workers' Culture Program falls under the wing of the Secretariat of Cultural Promotion and Incentives of the Ministry of Culture. However, the monitoring of the program and the application of any applicable penalties falls under the joint competence of the Ministries of Culture, Labor and Social Security, as well as the Treasury, according to provisions of Decree Nº 8084, of 26 August 2013.

The management and evaluation of the Workers' Culture Program is conducted based on the data sent by operator companies to the Ministry of Culture. With that data, it is possible to monitor the participation of workers and cultural sectors where the recipients have used the benefit. Up until 9 March 2016, 471,800 workers have benefitted from the program.

MICSUL is an institutional measure by the Ministry of Culture of Brazil with regional scope in South America. MICSUL is the largest cultural sector market platform in South America, geared toward small and medium-sized cultural entrepreneurs in the following sectors: music, audiovisual, performing arts, publishing, games and design. The Market, which takes place every two years in one of the participant countries, is structured around several spaces for business transactions, construction of partnerships and networks as well as academic agendas about subjects related to culture and the creative industry. The program involves business rounds, pitch sessions, fashion shows, music and performing arts showcases, discussion forums and institutional booths. It is an intergovernmental initiative by national culture organisms of the 12 South American countries (Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay and Venezuela), which also counts with the support of UNASUL and MERCOSUL.

Its first edition, in Mar del Plata, Argentina, in 2014, gathered around 800 South American entrepreneurs from six creative sectors (music, audiovisual, performing arts, publishing, games and design). Brazil participated with a total delegation of 199 entrepreneurs, of which 112 integrated the platform of market business rounds. The second edition of the biannual market is set to take place in Bogota, Colombia, from October 17 to 20 in 2016.

As the result of a policy focused on the external market, this measure aims at boosting the international circulation of cultural goods and agents from South America, encouraging the action of market agents toward setting up partnership networks and further meetings. As such, sectors with greater internationalization potential build scale, contract fruitful business partnerships, and expand their experience gamut by taking part in fairs, festivals, seminars, talks or international congresses. The major challenge is to ensure the expansion of the MICSUL Program in order to solidify its potential as a space of formation and expansion of business among South American countries. With that, it is possible to deepen the South-South cooperation policy and the incentives to cultural exchange in South America.

From this definition, it is possible to consider that there is a wide range of potential arrangements scattered throughout the country that are yet to become known, whether in the field of scientific investigation or politics.

The measure of Identification and Strengthening of Local Intensive Productive Arrangements in Culture was, then, conceived to encourage local processes of socioeconomic development by means of the promotion of sustainability and the productive collaboration between territorially identified micro and small cultural enterprises, ultimately contributing for the expansion of the reach of the policy.

The scope of the measure is national and it was implemented by the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Development, Industry and Foreign Trade, which, in 2013, have issued a public notice in partnership. At the occasion, 27 local intensive production arrangements in culture were selected, in 20 (out of 27) Brazilian federative units. Those arrangements were divided into five creative sectors, encompassing: performing arts, crafts, fashion and apparel, cultural tourism and audiovisual, design and games.

Other three projects were developed in 2015, including: i) Support to the setup of local productive arrangements in Indigenous Territories in Mato Grosso, encompassing local creative and solidary circuits; ii) Support to the Project Traditional Quilombola-Based Communities in the Cerrado region of the State of Goiás (creation and audiovisual production); iii) Support to the Project Prospection and Training in Creative Territories (Quissamã, Madureira and Paraty, in the State of Rio de Janeiro, and Cariri, in the State of Ceará).

The Ministry of Culture is implementing the National System of Cultural Information and Indicators, created by a specific Act, which will function as a data bank about assets, services, infrastructure, investments, production, access, consumption, agents, programs, institutions and cultural management, as well as transparency, among others, and will be made available for the society at large. The platform also fulfills the important role of supporting the implementation of the National Culture Plan, which defines public culture actions until 2020. The concept that guides the implementation of the platform allows for the direct participation of interested users, whether in the complementation of data presented at the system by the public sphere or through direct participation in the formulation and monitoring of cultural projects and policies, which we call collaborative governance. The System of Cultural Information and Indicators has yet to be completed, but, in 2015, great strides were made, with the integration of important database from the Ministry of Culture, such as “Cultura Viva” Network, the Registry of Public Libraries and the National Museum Registry. Another digital platform of the Ministry is that of the National Culture System, which allows for the access to informaiton about the process of integration of the states, the Federal District and municipalities to the System. This system aims at offering relevant information on cultural assets and services, providing support to public and private cultural administrators, besides offering greater social control of the resources. This platform also allows for administrators all over the country to be in touch and exchange experiences as well as collaborate in the implementation of the components of the culture systems in the country, as a managing organism for culture, a culture fund and a cultural board. In addition to the cultural administrators, any citizen can access the platform, do research and monitor information related to the municipalities that integrate the National Culture System.

The priorities elected in this conference were: i) the implementation of the National Culture System, with focus on the process of organization of cultural management and social participation; ii) the strengthening of artistic production and symbolic assets, and of the protection and promotion of diversity of cultural expressions; iii) civic and cultural rights, with a focus on the guarantee of the full exercise of cultural rights and the consolidation of civic rights with special attention toward ethnic and cultural diversity; iv) culture as sustainable development.
  2. Expansion of social participation and consolidation of the institutionality of the National Board of Cultural Policies. Created in 2005, the National Board of Cultural Policies is a collegiate organism integrating the administrative structure of the Ministry of Culture, with the goal of proposing the formulation of public policies, promoting the articulation and debate about the different levels of government and organized civil society for the development of cultural activities in the national territory. In 2005, the electoral process of the board had broad social mobilization, with meetings in person on the 26 states and the Federal District and a record number of registrations.

Generally speaking, the public policies developed by the Brazilian government in the scope of culture are aligned with the implementation of the guidelines of the Diversity Convention. Built by a proficuous partnership between public administrators and organized civil society, the National Culture Plan of the Ministry of Culture, for instance, was instituted by Law No. 12343, of December 2, 2010, with a ten-year horizon (2010-2020). Structured upon three complementary dimensions (culture as symbolic expression, civic rights and potential sustainable development field), the plan traces goals that are completely aligned with the Convention guidelines, including: mapping out the cultural expressions and languages all over Brazil; guaranteeing the increase of the number of traditional peoples and communities tended to by public actions of promotion of cultural diversity; fostering projects of support to economic sustainability of local cultural production; stimulating art and culture on public schools; expanding the offer of technical courses in the area of culture; heightening the recognition and certification of knowledge by workers in all areas of culture; increasing the number of cities with local artistic groups and collectives; fostering the implementation of Culture Points with vast thematic representation; increasing national and international exchange of activities tha disseminate Brazilian cultural manifestations in their diversity; extending the reach of the Culture Voucher Program for the Brazilian worker; incrementing the cultural fruition of the Brazilian citizen (attendance in museums, cultural centers, movie theaters and artistic shows); to expand the access to the Brazilian audiovisual productions through film clubs; to stimulate the creation and expansion of integrated spaces of culture, sports and leisure; making information available on the internet about collections of public libraries and museums; installing collegiates and elaborating culture plans for all the sectors represented in the National Board of Cultural Policies.

J.M.Barros: The Cultural Diversity Observatory is set up as two complementary and dialogic fronts: (i) its presence as an NGO that develops programs of collaborative action among cultural administrators, artists, art educators, cultural agents and researchers with the support of the Municipal and State Funds of culture; (ii) a research group comprised of researchers conducting studies from education institutions, investigating the subject of cultural diversity in different lines of research. Aims to produce information and knowledge, generate experiences and experimentation, acting upon the challenges of protection and promotion of cultural diversity. The Observatory seeks encourage and conduct academic research, build educational, cultural and managerial competencies, as well as offer experiences of mediation in the field of cultural diversity – understood as a structuring element of collective identities open to mutual dialogue and respect. The lines of research are: Communication, media interactions and cultural diversity; Culture, education and communication; Cultural diversity training; and Public policies for culture and communication. Giordana: The civil society has progressively been taking a more active approach to cultural policies by its activities along with board organisms (National Board, Collegiates, National Committee of Culture Incentive, state and municipal boards). In addition, cultural diversity has been developed through other participative spaces such as the Conferences, work groups and public consultations for national, state and municipal culture plans. The principles and goals of the Convention are also promoted with the implementation of the Culture Systems. Wellington: Taking the concerns of the citizens to public authorities, associations and businesses, including those by vulnerable groups. Contributing with greater transparency and accountability in the governance of culture. Monitoring the policies and programs of implementation of measures of protection and promotion of diversity of cultural expressions.

José Márcio Barros: The Brazilian civil society has the opportunity of taking part in the creation, implementation and monitoring of public culture policies through the National Board of Cultural Policies, the National Committee of Culture Incentive, the Sectorial Collegiates that subsidize the Board, and the several Municipal and State Boards of Culture, among other forums of democratic participation. By those mechanisms of participation, civil society can monitor the implementation of policies and programs in the scope of the measures designated to protect and promote the diversity of cultural expressions, and contribute to improve transparency and accountability in regard to cultural governance.

Giordana: One of the main actions designed for “taking the concerns of the citizens to public authorities, associations and businesses, including those by vulnerable groups" is social participation by means of boards, collegiates, work groups, conferences, public consultations. One example is the Collegiates of Popular Cultures and Indigenous Cultures, among other participative instances that rely on the social participation of vulnerable groups not only within the scope of the Ministry of Culture.
 

Contribuer à améliorer la transparence et la responsabilité en matière de gouvernance de la culture:
Yes
Comment?:

José Márcio Barros: The Cultural Diversity Observatory – ODC keeps a website constantly updated with informations about public policies, programs and projects related to the protection and promotion of cultural diversity. Moreover, it edits and offers monthly newsletters for over 25,000 readers, and keeps an updated profile on Facebook, which makes it a source of reference for researchers, administrators and activists of cultural diversity in Brazil and in other countries.

Giordana: In my opinion, there is a long way toward advancement in this aspect. Civil society, even with their participation on instances such as the boards, still has challenges to tackle regarding representation. The participant instances are comprised, in the majority, by representative electter and by their peers. However, the representation of those cultural agents has yet to translate as a broader dialogue with their base. This happens because of communication issues with a broad range of regional cultural agents (for instance, in the Northern region there are faraway locations of difficult access) or even election of representatives with little representation capillarity. All of this has an impact upon the contributions of transparency and accountability in cultural governance. After all, one of the goals of the boards and collegiates of MinC is to monitor cultural activities fostered within the Federal scope. Moreover, civil society is still getting a hold of technological tools for social participation on the internet. That is, a greater contribution could be made toward transparency and accountability by public consultations, communication channels on the internet, Public Transparency website etc. This is presently still a very timid process. Evidently, it is something to be developed in the long term, above all, as it is not just about the appropriation of online social participation tools. It is about access to technology and, above all, the “present” civic action itself. In summary, civil society gives a partial contribution to the board-driven instances.

Comment?:

José Márcio Barros: The ODC conducts research involving different aspects of cultural policies. In the website, there are some results available. Presently, there are three ongoing researches: Mediation and cultural diversity in cultural equipment; Social participation and deliberation in the National Culture and Plan and the National Policies for Cultural Diversity in Latin American Countries. In 2015, the ODC published the book “Dimensões e desafios políticos para a diversidade cultural” [Political Dimensions and Challenges for Cultural Diversity]. In this anthology, which gathers papers by professors, researchers and administrators from several countries, the contemporary challenge of developing policies for cultural diversity is analyzed from different perspectives. The book is available for free download from the Observatory website. it was organized by researchers Paulo Miguez, José Márcio Barros and Giuliana Kauark, with the support of EDUFBA.

Giordana: I believe that the greater contribution will come from Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), research groups, studies and research connected to public and private universities, research observatories etc. NGOs such as the Cultural Diversity Observatory, IPEA (which conducts a large amount of research) as well, among others.

José Márcio Barros: Since 2003, the ODC has continuously offered training courses in Development and Cultural Administration, with an emphasis on Cultural Diversity and geared toward stakeholders. In addition to that, part of the team has participated in training process of Municipal Culture Plans conducted by UFBa and UFRGs. Talks, debates and seminars are constantly attended by ODC members.

Giordana: Training and qualification can be a way of creating competencies in the areas connected to the convention and can also be used to gather data; after all, one can collect data from participants to get to know who are the cultural agents and administrators. Distance education can contribute to achieving a greater number of participants. In addition to that, the implementation of a System of Cultural Information and Indicators, as well as the implementation of municipal and state systems also favors that. Above all, it is necessary to articulate the different systems to centralize and/or systematize all data.
 

Créer des partenariats innovants avec les secteurs public et privé et avec la société civile d’autres régions dans le monde:

José Márcio Barros: The ODC maintains strategic partnerships with excellence centers in the region and in the world, in addition to conducting trips, work missions and research with undergraduate students, graduate students and researchers connected to the Observatory projects, especially from Argentina, Uruguay, Cuba, Spain and France. The more constant partnerships are with: the Master in Arts program of UEMG; the Master in Communication of PUC Minas; the Municipal Culture Foundation of Belo Horizonte; the Ministry of Culture of Brazil.

Giordana: A possible path, I believe, is that of cultural exchange (artistic residencies, courses, events) as well as joint action involving international organisms (be it research, events, or programs and policies – taking “Cultura Viva” as an example).

Défis rencontrés ou prévus pour la mise en oeuvre de la Convention:
  • José Márcio Barros: To expand the processes of training of cultural administrators with a focus on cultural diversity through Distance Learning processes.
  • José Márcio Barros: To contribute with the strengthening and monitoring of transnational culture public policies, effectively regional, with an emphasis on Latin American countries.
  • Giordana: Appropriation by civil society, as a major contribution toward actions of social participation based on the principles and goals of the convention; it becomes a greater hindrance in cultural sectors that have a diffuse cultural conformation.
  • Wellington: The lack of incentive to small groups and/or companies in the hinterlands of each Brazilian state still persists. It is also important to conduct a more careful or strict monitoring process for the conduction of those programs and projects.
Solutions identifiées ou envisagées:
  • (JMB) Setting up a distance learning course geared toward Brazilian and other Latin American participants.
  • (JMB) Establishing partnerships with research organisms and universities in the region, building indicators and research focused on reports from Latin American countries in 2005 Convention, and related documents, especially UDELAR in Uruguay and ISA Cuba.
  • (Giordana) Board member training courses focused on concepts aligned with the Convention is another possible solution.
  • (Giordana) In Addition to virtual platforms – following the example of the collaborative platform of CNPC – it is important to associate the actions of online social participation with the present-form practices/channels/participative spaces.
  • (Giordana) the actions in board instances and other social audience spaces must prioritize transparency. It is important to own these communication channels and keep them updated.
Activités planifiées pour les quatre prochaines années pour la mise en oeuvre de la Convention:

Résultats et défis
Décrire les principaux résultats atteints dans la mise en œuvre de la Convention:

● The 2005 Convention has contributed for the establishment of national legal frameworks that sustained public policies of protection and promotion of diversity of cultural expressions in the country. As an example, we may mention the institution of the “Cultura Viva” National Policy (Law nº 13018/2014), known as “Cultura Viva” Law;

● It also created objective conditions for the establishment of conceptual and institutional landmarks to subsidize the process of formulation of guidelines and reflextions about the protection and promotion of cultural diversity in Brazil, by means of pacts, exchange, collaboration of knowledge about public culture policies and the challenges posed by the Convention;

● And it contributed, also, for the strengthening of the process of gradual substantiation of understanding and appreciation by the society at large of the role of culture in development and, consequentially, of public cultural policies as vectors of development.

Les défis rencontrés ou prévus pour mettre en œuvre la Convention:
  • Challenge 1: Asymmetrical assimilation (time and movement) of the strategic principles and goals of the Diversity Convention by the instances that comprise the federative pact (Union, states and municipalities);
  • Challenge 2: Difficulties in establishing a process of effective integration among other government areas based on the transversality of culture;
  • Challenge 3: Incipient data, mappings and indicators that would allow for the knowledge, monitoring and evaluation, with greater accuracy, of the diversity of Brazilian cultural manifestations and their distribution across the territory so as to gather objective conditions for the establishment of comparability criteria allowing for the expansion of the process of protection and promotion of cultural diversity in the country, strengthening, finally, their institutionalization as State policy;
  • Challenge 4: Lack of studies about the impact of implemented policies, of an evaluation of the feasibility of goals and the construction of adequate indicators (with scientific rigor).
Les solutions identifiées ou envisagées pour relever ces défis:
  • Solution 1: Creation and maintenance of campaigns of publicization of goals, strategic principles, conceptual definitions and top mechanisms of implementation of the Diversity Convention;
  • Solution 2: Stimulus to the creation/implementation of national, state and municipal culture policies and systems, with the participation of the federative entities, of the civil society and partners, com a participação dos entes federados, da sociedade civil e de parceiros, likely to reverberate throughout the federation;
  • Solution 3: Monitoring of the National Culture Plan (2010-2020), which has 53 goals and incorporates the principles and goals that guide the Diversity Convention;
  • Solution 4: Improvement of the National System of Culture Information and Indicators, which collects, systematizes and interprets data, in addition to providing methodologies and establishing parameters for the measuring of cultural activity and social needs for culture, allowing for the formulation, monitoring, management and evaluation of public policies of culture and cultural policies;
  • Solution 5: Conducting public consultation about the Bill that regulates Article 216.a of the Federal Constitution, providing on the organizational structuring of the systems of culture on the three levels of the federation, as well as on the tools that will allow for broad social participation in the workings of the National Culture System itself;
  • Solution 6: Strengthening the process of creation of partnerships with private and/or public institution able to effectively evaluate the impacts of policies implemented by the Ministry of Culture.
Les étapes prévues pour les quatre prochaines années:

● To implement state and municipal culture plans with focus on cultural diversity in order to strengthen the National Culture System;

● To implement national sectorial culture plans in 19 sectors, for the strengthening od the dialogue between different languages and artistic and cultural means of expression, with broad social participation;

● To monitor and evaluate the goals provided in the National Culture Plan, particularly the ones more directly related to the Diversity Convention, with adequate methodology and indicators (and with great scientific rigor);

● To foster a dialogue between the Intangible Heritage and the Diversity of Cultural Expressions Conventions, so as to broaden the access by traditional communities to means of production and dissemination of their cultural expressions;

● To promote and disseminate Brazilian cultural diversity on major events.

Política Nacional de Cultura Viva [“Cultura Viva” National Policy]

a. 2 Contexte de la mesure: 
POLITIQUES CULTURELLES ET MESURES
b. Objectifs clefs de la mesure: 

The Ministry of Culture defined social inclusion through culture as a strategic priority for the 2013/2014 biennial. With that, it became essential to consolidate and expand the “Cultura Viva” Program, created in 2004, and characterized as an integrated fostering policy, with the participation of partner federal organs as well as state, district and municipal governments and civil society.  This was achieved by means of Law no. 13018 of 22 July 2014, which represented the transformation of the “Cultura Viva” Program of the Ministry of Culture into a State Policy – the “Cultura Viva” National Policy.

Cradled on the democratic mechanisms of dialogue and participation, the Policy of  “Cultura Viva” has the following goals: i) to guarantee the full exercise of cultural rights by Brazilian citizens, providing them the necessary means and resources to produce, record, manage and broadcast cultural initiatives; ii) to stimulate social leadership in the elaboration and management of public culture policies; iii) to promote a shared and participatory public management cradled in the democratic mechanisms of dialogue with civil society; iv) to consolidate the principles of social participation in cultural policies; v) to guarantee the respect to culture as a civic right and a right to cultural diversity as a symbolic expression and as economic activity; vi) to foster existing cultural initiatives by means of the devices available to the Union, the States, the Federal District and the Municipalities; vii) to promote access to means of enjoyment, production and broadcasting of culture; viii) to boost cultural initiatives, with a view to the construction of new values of cooperation and solidarity, and to expand education tools with education;  ix) to foster the exploration, use and appropriation of the artistic codes and languages as well as public and private spaces made available for cultural action.

The instruments are: i) the Pontos de Cultura [Culture Points]: groups, collectives and private law businesses that are non-profits, which conduct cultural activities with local communities; ii) the Pontões de Cultura [Big Culture Points]: entities that articulate and train a certain number of Culture Points through exchange, fostering of cultural-artistic action, management training, digital culture, among others; iii) the National Register of Culture Points and Big Points – mechanism of insertion, certification, monitoring and assessment of the entities that are involved in this Policy. It is one of the Ministry's policies with greater capillarity and visibility in the national territory. There are Culture Points in all of the 26 Brazilian states and in the Federal District, as well as in over one thousand municipalities (19% of the total). Moreover, the policy has international repercussion, as it inspired the creation of similar policies in several countries in Latin America, such as Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica and Peru, among others. It also inspired the creation of the international cooperation program IBERCultura Viva, within the scope of the Iberian-American General Secretariat.

* “Cultura Viva” policy has acquired legal character with the edition of Law nº 13018/2014, by which it is instituted. It is supported by public funds from the federative entities – the Union, the states, the Federal District and the municipalities, and it is organized transparently, via public selection call notices.

* This policy was conceived to expand the access of the Brazilian population to means of cultural production, circulation and enjoyment, with a focus on diversity and civic impact. Both Points and Big Points organize bodies of civil society that function as beacons of culture, incorporating, even, an anthropological approach to the field, going beyond traditional cultural output, with an emphasis on transversality and shared management between the public authority and the community.

Before the edition of the “Cultura Viva” National Policy, it became evident that the Brazilian State lacked proper mechanisms to effectively fund and propel policies focused on the diversity of cultural expressions and their preservation aimed at the sustainable development of the country. It was, therefore, urgent and necessary to furnish the “Cultura Viva” program with well-designer legal instruments capable of guiding the consolidation of strategic goals founded on the exercise of cultural civic virtues.

* Considering the period between 2012 and 2015, the total amount of allocated resources in the implementation of the program that became the “Cultura Viva” Policy reached 71,385,029.05 USD.

It is a permanent instance of political-cultural action and representation, for the identification of demands and elaboration of proposals toward the development of cultural public policies and actions in the country. Its goals are: strengthen the Culture Points network; elaborate cultural policy and shared management proposals, especially referring to the “Cultura Viva” National Policy; propose new legal frameworks that reinforce the status of culture as a civic right, as well as to articulate, mobilize and contribute to the empowerment of forums, state and regional networks of Culture Points.

The “Cultura Viva” National Policy was set up in close collaboration with civil society, with shared management as one of its basic tenets, founded on the understanding that the beneficiaries of the Program are also essential actors for its management. Since the creation of the Program, in 2004, the administrative environment of this public policy includes mechanisms of representation and participation that are continuously improved, such as panels, committees, collegiates and boards.

It was verified during the implementation of the Program that the role of the Culture Points in our society transcends its stricto sensu cultural action. The “Cultura Viva” program has created a space for the strengthening of the leadership of managers of Points in their original environments, and for a broader construction of cultural policies. Beyond that, more recently the articulation with social and cultural movements has intensified, as well as the activation of independent networks and circuits.

Several studies have been conducted since the very moment of the creation of the “Cultura Viva” Program in 2004, including: i) Research in partnership with the Institute of Applied Economic Research (IPEA), in 2010, entitled Avaliação do Programa Arte, Educação e Cidadania [Assessment of the Art, Education and Civic Rights Program], based in a sample group of 526 Culture Points; ii) Research in partnership with IPEA, in 2011, entitled Cultura Viva: As Práticas de Pontos e Pontões [“Cultura Viva”: The Practices at Points and Big Points]; iii) Research in partnership with IPEA, in 2011, entitled Olhares sobre o Programa Cultura Viva [Views about the “Cultura Viva” Program]; iv) Other studies, academic researches and dissertations about the subject are listed in Additional Annex III.

One of the studies conducted was the research project entitled "Cultura Viva Program: social impact and transformations", by the Observatory of Cultural Public Policies of the University of Brasília, which reached the following conclusions: in many cases, the activities offered by the Culture Points are the only cultural options within a radius of many municipalities; the actions perpetrated by the Culture Points go beyond offering courses to meet a local demand, because many of them act directly upon the rescuing of lost, denied or hidden values and identities. With a few exceptions, the courses involve non-hegemonic cultural practices that cannot traditionally be found in official art schools, such as hip hop, capoeira, circus and Afro-Brazilian fashion, among others. This offering of diverse courses in the cultural field expands the possibilities of professional placement of people that had never thought about them before and end up effectively working in the area; even when the Culture Points are dedicated to audiovisual and film courses, their productions always appreciate local cultural output (peripheral in terms of neighborhoods or cities); the non-interference of the State in the choices of which actions can or should be conducted at

i.3 Quels ont été les indicateurs utilisés pour déterminer son impact ?: 

In 2015, an agreement between Unesco and the Secretariat of Citzenship and Cultural Diversity provided resources for the hiring of consultants to assess the state of the art of the process of implementation of the “Cultura Viva” National Policy, which should include the production of diagnoses on the functioning status of state and municipal networks and pari passu monitoring of the process of implementation of the National Register of Culture Points and Big Points, as well as the proposition of indicators and a plan for the training of managers to provide for the Policy's monitoring process itself.

The scope of the measure is national and its nature is legislative and regulatory (Law nº 12485/2011; Law nº 11437/2006 and Normative Instruction no. 100/2012). The Brazil of All Screens Program, launched in July 2014, was created to act upon the expansion of the market and the universalization of access to Brazilian audiovisual works, with the aim of turning the country into a relevant center of production and broadcasting of audiovisual content, and was formulated by the National Cinema Agency, in partnership with the Ministry of Culture, with the collaboration of the audiovisual sector through their representatives in the Management Committee of the Sectorial Fund for Audiovisual.

The program uses resources from the Sectorial Fund for Audiovisual but juxtaposes different modalities of financial operation and articulates public-private partnerships, proposing new business models. Added to the lines of funding operated by the Sectorial Fund for Audiovisual since 2002 were: initiatives with the production line for public channels (community, academic, educational and cultural) in the 27 states of the country; the new Automatic Financial Support System, which injects funding in the companies that show commercialization results, viabilizing their planning; international partnerships and low budget and documentary call notices through activities coordinated by the Secretariat of Audiovisual of the Ministry of Culture; incentives to regional fostering policies by unprecedented partnerships with local governments.

POLITIQUES CULTURELLES ET MESURES
b. Objectifs clefs de la mesure: 

The goal of the quota is to ensure the presence in the local market of audiovisual output produced in Brazil, in a healthy balance with international output.

In film, the Screen Quota is aimed at guaranteeing a market share for the national cinema output to counter the massive presence of foreign content in cinema screens. By allowing for a minimum outflow of Brazilian output, it expands the access by the audience and promoted the diversity of the titles in the theaters.

The establishment of mandatory screening of Brazilian audiovisual works on private paid television also has the goal of guaranteeing a potential minimum demand, which stimulates national production of national content geared toward this market segment.

c.3. La principale caractéristique de la mesure: 

It's a national measure of legislative and regulatory nature. On theaters, the Screen Quota has legal provision through Article 55 of Provisional Measure 2228-1/2001. The requisites and conditions of validity for meeting the Quota are defined by Normative Instruction nº 88 of the National Cinema Agency, updated by Normative Instructions nº 113, of 18 December 2013; 117, of 31 December 2014; and 122, 9 December 2015. The number of days of screening and minimum diversity of Brazilian titles to be show in movie theaters in the country throughout the year are fixed in a yearly basis. The decree for the 2016 Screen Quota has determined that movie theaters with one screen must show Brazilian movies for a minimum of 28 days for the year – and at least three different titles. The Screen Quota varies according to the size of the movie theater complex up to a maximum of 63 days (on average) per screen, for complexes with seven screens – which must show a minimum of 11 different national titles.

For television, Law nº 1437/2006, Law nº 12485/2012 and Normative Instruction nº 100/12 establish two types of quotas: (i) Programming Quota: on qualified space channels, a minimum of three hours and thirty minutes per week of content aired on prime time must be Brazilian and integrate qualified space, and half must be by independent Brazilian production companies; (ii) Package Quota: for each three channels with qualified space feature in each cable package offered in the membership, at least one must be a Brazilian channel of qualified space, and at least one third of this minimum share of Brazilian channels must have programming by an independent Brazilian provider. The company offering the package will have the obligation of meeting those demands up until a limit of 12 Brazilian channels of qualified space. Out of the Brazilian channels that are part of packages, at least two must air a minimum of 12 daily hours of audiovisual content created by a Brazilian independent production company, three of which must be on prime time.

The results expected of the implementation of those measures are: (i) market reserve for the national product to counter the massive presence of foreign content on cinema screens; (ii) diversified offer of titles on movie screens; (iii) preservation of the freedom of choice of the audience; (iv) stimulus for the creation of Brazilian channels with content provided by Brazilian companies, as well as for the production of independent Brazilian content of greater added value, such as films, television series, documentaries and animation; (v) strong impact on the paid television market, the broadband market and the audiovisual market, with increased offers of service and competition, reduced prices and improved quality, with more plurality and diversity in the audiovisual content offered to the client; (vi) to foster the national market, creating the conditions for the multiplication of enterprises and generation of internal wealth, so that Brazil may become a major hub of audiovisual output.

The policy of mandatory airing of national content is not just founded on economic issues, but also on cultural aspects, as minimum quota for national content yield diversity in audiovisual markets and are legitimate instruments recognized by the international community by means of the 2005 Convention.

The main goal of the measure – Law nº 12853 of 14 August 2013, alongside Decree 8469/2015 as well as the ordinances and normative instructions that regulate it – was to alter the Copyright Act (Law nº 9610/1998) concerning the inclusion of collective management of those rights. With the new legal instruments, the associations of copyright charges contracted the obligation of meeting universal charging parameters and of guaranteeing more transparency to the rightholders regarding registry and distribution of collected amounts.

In the scope of the promotion of cultural diversity, the new instruments have created the legal conditions for independent artists who work at the fringes of the cultural industry, to have greater control of the amounts collected in their name, being able to monitor and report on any irregularities in the charging and distribution of the amounts pertaining to their works. At the same time, from the regulation of the Act, the Direction of Intellectual Rights of the Ministry of Culture also gained greater monitoring power, with a more concrete role on the mediation and arbitration of litigations.

d. Cible-t-elle spécifiquement des individus et/ou des groupes sociaux tels que définis par l’article 7 de la Convention ?: 
Oui
e. Quels sont les résultats attendus de la mise en œuvre de la mesure? : 

One of the challenges regarding copyright in Brazil concerns the need to make alterations upon the reigning legislation, especially the items pertaining to limitations. Those alterations would fulfill the goal of promoting access to protected works from Brazil and elsewhere, especially those with strategic value for the preservation of memory and the appreciation of the cultural wealth of Brazil and the world. This measure implicates the definition and establishment of regulatory and arbitration mechanisms that allow, for instance, for the liberation of access to fundamental works for the national and universal culture and memory that are out of circulation, even for commercialization, due to legal deadlocks with producers, editors and authors.

Another challenge is the search for balance between the promotion of diversity of access to the works and the fair remuneration of the artists and authors, considering the technological changes that have been modifying the mechanisms of sale and distribution of music, film and books. Presently, the most notorious case is that of the streaming services. That is because, considering the fast pace with which technologies change, one must considered the demand for the creation of instruments to guarantee that balance must be dynamic and based upon regulation as well as compatible mediation and arbitration rules. In that sense, it is necessary to establish rules and regulation mechanisms for the digital environment.

A first step stemming from this issue was the elaboration of a normative instruction that is under public consultation for the definition of rules for charging copyright in the digital environment. At the same time, the Directorship of Intellectual Rights of the Ministry of Culture has been actively participating on meeting and has set up a work group integrated by representatives of stakeholders with the aim of discussing, elaborating mechanisms that guarantee that the content offered in digital environments does not favor only what is interesting for the industry.

b. Objectifs clefs de la mesure: 

Known as Vale-Cultura, the Workers' Culture Program was created through Law nº 12761, of 27 December 2012 and regulated by Decree Nº 8084, of 26 August 2013. According to Article 2 of this Act, this program has the following goals: i) to allow for access to and enjoyment of cultural products and services; ii) to encourage visitation to artistic and cultural venues; iii) to encourage attendance to cultural and artistic events and shows.

c. Quel(le) est:

c.2. la nature de la mesure:

c.3. La principale caractéristique de la mesure: 

The Culture Voucher is a partnership of the Federal Government with businesses aimed at benefitting the Brazilian workers who have formal work contracts. It is, therefore, an institutional measure of national range. The benefit is granted to the worker through a magnetic prepaid card with a monthly credit of 14.79 USD. The amount, which is cumulative and has no date of expiry, can be used to purchase entry on theaters, cinema, museums, shows, the circus, or to buy CDs, DVDs, books, magazines and newspapers, or even to pay for monthly fees of cultural courses and workshops in the entire national territory. Social security taxes or compensation funds for time of service do not incide over the amount spent with the Culture Voucher by the companies that offer the benefit to their employees, and it is exempt of income taxes. Moreover, the beneficiary companies taxed over real profit may get a discount of up to 1% of their income tax because of the amount spent with the Culture Voucher.

For this particular program, services and products are defined as follows:

Cultural services: They are cultural and artistic activities provided by corporate entities active in the following cultural sectors: visual arts, performing arts, audiovisual, music, cultural heritage, literature, humanities and information.

Cultural products: They are artistic, cultural and informational material produced in any format or media by persons or businesses, whose characteristics fit the cultural sectors described above.

Participants of the program are: beneficiary companies (employers), its employees, receiving businesses (providers of cultural products and services) and card operators. The beneficiaries are the companies that offer the benefit to its employees and are granted the program's fiscal benefits. The receiving companies are the business entities licensed to receive the Culture Voucher as a mode of payment for a cultural service or product, such as movie theaters, concert venues, bookstores and other commercial establishments. Finally, the operators are companies authorized by the Ministry

d. Cible-t-elle spécifiquement des individus et/ou des groupes sociaux tels que définis par l’article 7 de la Convention ?:

e. Quels sont les résultats attendus de la mise en œuvre de la mesure? : 

The Culture Voucher is the first policy by the Ministry of Culture geared exclusively toward cultural expenditure. The expectation is that it will directly benefit, until 2020, 2 million workers with the Culture Voucher. With greater access to and enjoyment of cultural services and goods, it is an instrument for the increased well-being and quality of life of the recipients. Indirectly, the Culture Voucher fosters the market of cultural products and services by making available a portion of the workers' income for the sector, making cultural offers attractive to the recipients.

* The management of the Workers' Culture Program falls under the wing of the Secretariat of Cultural Promotion and Incentives of the Ministry of Culture. However, the monitoring of the program and the application of any applicable penalties falls under the joint competence of the Ministries of Culture, Labor and Social Security, as well as the Treasury, according to provisions of Decree Nº 8084, of 26 August 2013.

The management and evaluation of the Workers' Culture Program is conducted based on the data sent by operator companies to the Ministry of Culture. With that data, it is possible to monitor the participation of workers and cultural sectors where the recipients have used the benefit. Up until 9 March 2016, 471,800 workers have benefitted from the program.

The goal is to share information about how the program works, as it is simple and accessible, with positive results for all the audiences involved, aimed at expanding the participation of employers, receiving venues and workers in all the regions of Brazil. Also in 2015, the advertising campaign for the Culture Voucher was re-ignited in social media.

MICSUL is an institutional measure by the Ministry of Culture of Brazil with regional scope in South America. MICSUL is the largest cultural sector market platform in South America, geared toward small and medium-sized cultural entrepreneurs in the following sectors: music, audiovisual, performing arts, publishing, games and design. The Market, which takes place every two years in one of the participant countries, is structured around several spaces for business transactions, construction of partnerships and networks as well as academic agendas about subjects related to culture and the creative industry. The program involves business rounds, pitch sessions, fashion shows, music and performing arts showcases, discussion forums and institutional booths. It is an intergovernmental initiative by national culture organisms of the 12 South American countries (Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay and Venezuela), which also counts with the support of UNASUL and MERCOSUL.

Its first edition, in Mar del Plata, Argentina, in 2014, gathered around 800 South American entrepreneurs from six creative sectors (music, audiovisual, performing arts, publishing, games and design). Brazil participated with a total delegation of 199 entrepreneurs, of which 112 integrated the platform of market business rounds. The second edition of the biannual market is set to take place in Bogota, Colombia, from October 17 to 20 in 2016.

As the result of a policy focused on the external market, this measure aims at boosting the international circulation of cultural goods and agents from South America, encouraging the action of market agents toward setting up partnership networks and further meetings. As such, sectors with greater internationalization potential build scale, contract fruitful business partnerships, and expand their experience gamut by taking part in fairs, festivals, seminars, talks or international congresses. The major challenge is to ensure the expansion of the MICSUL Program in order to solidify its potential as a space of formation and expansion of business among South American countries. With that, it is possible to deepen the South-South cooperation policy and the incentives to cultural exchange in South America.

In Brazil, the program has been implemented by the Secretariat of Audiovisual of the Ministry of Culture, since 2014. After a successful experience in 2010 with the 1sr Program of Development of Production and Television Dissemination of Documentary Films in the Community of Portuguese Language Countries (DOCTV CPLP I), the present CPLP Audiovisual Program consists of three lines of action: i) DOCTV CPLP II; ii) Program of Promotion of Development, Production and Television Dissemination of Works of Fiction in the Community of Portuguese Language Countries (FICTV CPLP I); iii) Program of Exchange of Television Dissemination of Documentaries (Nossa Língua I).

Beyond the conclusion of the Program, there is an expectation that the fostering of audiovisual production will boost the audiovisual content markets of the Member States of CPLP, and generates greater visibility for audiovisual output by the Member States outside of the Community, with real gains for all the sector operators and for CPLP. This is based on the fact that the success of the program's goals have the potential of creating the conditions for the multiplication of its effects over several platforms, including the constitution of networks and potential actions of production and/or sharing of audiovisual content between the Member States of the Community of Portuguese Language Countries, further boosting and strengthening processes of collaboration and sharing of technical solutions and/or equipment among all.

In the present moment, the greatest challenge is to sustain the perennial status of the Audiovisual CPLP Program so as to round up the conditions for the expansion of the integrative space among the countries that comprise the Community.

f.1 Nom de l’agence chargée de la mise en œuvre de la mesure: 
In Brazil, the organism responsible for the implementation of this program is the Secretariat of Audiovisual of the Ministry of Culture.
f.2 Ressources financières allouées à la mise en œuvre de la mesure: 

Brazil has allocated resources in the order of 2,069,965.10 USD to the CPLP Special Fund for the financing of the program. Those resources add up to the amount allocated by Portugal, of about 887,573,96 USD rounding up the total resources of the program. At this point, it bears mentioning the convergence with the provisions of Article 16 of the Convention, which concerns preferential treatment for developing countries.

INTÉGRATION DE LA CULTURE DANS LES POLITIQUES DE DÉVELOPPEMENT DURABLE
b. Objectifs clefs de la mesure: 

The Local Productive Arrangements in culture are the result of a decentralized public policy of economic development that was made official by the Federal Government of Brazil in 2004, and contributes to encourage competitiveness and the economic insertion of micro and small businesses in the culture field, with strong local and regional territorial expression. From this definition, it is possible to consider that there is a wide range of potential arrangements scattered throughout the country that are yet to become known, whether in the field of scientific investigation or politics.

The measure of Identification and Strengthening of Local Intensive Productive Arrangements in Culture was, then, conceived to encourage local processes of socioeconomic development by means of the promotion of sustainability and the productive collaboration between territorially identified micro and small cultural enterprises, ultimately contributing for the expansion of the reach of the policy.

i.2 Quelles ont été les principales conclusions?: 

The Mais Cultura nas Escolas Program was evaluated nationally. Among the preliminary conclusions collected during meetings through all of the Brazilian regions, it was found that: (i) the program proves to be an important channel for the articulation and integration of projects, programs and activities developed at schools; (ii) the formative processes must promote experiences and cultural practies geared toward the recognition of territories, spaces and traditional knowledge; (iii) there is an absence of specific spaces for artistic and cultural practices in most of the schools; (iv) the integration of diverse cultural spaces in the development of educational activities contributes toward the promotion and recognition of educational territories; (v) integrating new knowledge in the daily life of schools is still a challenge to be tackled.
