Key objectives of the measure:
The Council of National Cultural Institutions (CNCI), established by the Department of Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht, devised a policy framework for Education, Community and Outreach work by the cultural institutions, which was published in 2004. Key actions proposed for ECO work included a strategic plan, developing indicators, a cycle of evaluation, providing skilled staff to work on ECO, and an emphasis on the value of partnership with other organisations (cultural and non-cultural) in carrying out this work. Over recent years, this work has been stepped up and mainstreamed in most of the cultural institutions.
