About the project:

    • Contributes to the introduction of better informed cultural policies to promote the development of Serbia’s cultural industries – the production of a policy handbook and a white paper, as well as the implementation of a number of capacity-building workshops are instrumental in ensuring effective policy interventions to develop a competitive and dynamic local cultural and creative industries sector.
    • Encourages dialogue and fosters cooperation – sharing information and experiences between key stakeholders will improve good governance in the cultural and creative industries sector at the local and regional level.
