Title of the section:
How does this project contribute to the implementation of the 2005 Convention?
Short Description:
- Contributes to the introduction of cultural policies at the local level and reinforces synergies with existing national cultural policies. Since 2008, regional authorities are responsible for the organization of cultural life at the local level. However, few local development plans (LDP) today integrate issues related to cultural development. To address this matter, the project aims to reinforce cultural planning at the local level, so that effective and structured policies for cultural life can be developed
- Promotes cross-sectoral cooperation in policy making and implementation, as well as the active participation and involvement of a wide range of stakeholders.
