UCLG Global Cultural Summit Dublin 2023 Delighted to see that the UCLG Global Cultural Summit will take place in Dublin on 1st December 2023. Having advocated for this since 2010, it's a delight to finally see Dublin City Council host this event. As the chair of DCC's City’s Arts, Culture, Leisure & Recreation Strategic Policy Committee noted: "Dublin has made progress in approaching culture strategically" Hopefully, the adoption of UCLG Agenda 21 for culture will be next for DCC. Well done Dublin City Council 😉. Agenda 21 for culture is the first document with a worldwide mission for an undertaking by cities and local governments for cultural development. At a local level, it is being used to reinforce and renew local cultural policies, and to include a solid fourth pillar in sustainable development. United Cities and Local Governments (UCLG) is the largest organization of local and regional governments in the world. You, we, stand on the shoulders of countless women and men who have worked tirelessly to empower each other for over a century, to lift up their communities and to collaborate with one another in order to achieve real change. UCLG, as a global network of cities and local, regional, and metropolitan governments and their associations, is committed to representing, defending, and amplifying the voices of local and regional governments to leave no one and no place behind. Together we are the sentinels of the hopes, dreams, and aspirations held by individuals in communities around the world — searching for a life in which the ideals of the SDGs are a lived reality. #culture #dcc #uclg #agenda21forculture #sustainability #policy

#CCIContactDesk #Nightlife Addressing all Estonian students whose future work may be related to the organization of nightlife, the City of Tallinn and the CCI Contact Desk have decided to collaborate on promoting night culture in 2024. Therefore, Estonian students are invited to participate in the seminar "Kuidas korraldada ööelu?" held on the 12th of April 2024, in Tallinn, Paavli Kultuurivabrik. You can find the programme here: 📍 https://shorturl.at/avwxM. The topics tackled will be the following: 1) How do we ensure a safer night culture? 2) How do we research night culture? 3) Who and what is Tallinn's night culture? The seminar is intended for students in specialties that may involve organizing nightlife. Those interested can register using this link: 📍 https://lnkd.in/dThQHg7T. Furthermore, it is possible to receive compensation for travel expenses for all those coming from outside Tallinn. If desired, all seminar participants can purchase a ticket for the Ben Frost concert at the Paavli Culture Factory on the same evening with a -50% discount. If you have any questions, please write to: lara.loeser@goethe.de

The plan outlines eight key areas designed to articulate the vision and outline actionable steps for tangible cultural enhancements.

The Rewilding Cultures project wants to open a discussion on how we can advocate for and make changes and better choices to empower more sustainable and inclusive practices within cultural exchange. With this call we want to offer support for those who are aspiring towards more sustainable choices and practices, have needs and wants which go beyond current forms of funding but also for those who want to experiment, test and question not only with mobility but also through work. We also offer support for ongoing activities. Artists, researchers and technologists can apply for mobility or mobility-related work support which destinations go beyond the RC network partners. The proposed activity needs to happen in 2024. No prior affiliation with any of the Rewilding Cultures partner associations is required. The activity should be conducted with an organisation or venue which is not part of the Rewilding Cultures network. The applicant needs either to reside in a Creative Europe country or the mobility destination needs to be located in a Creative Europe country which is different from the country of residence 🔗 More information and how to apply on our website: https://lnkd.in/dGJm_Nir #opencall #mobility #funding #sciart #bioart #sustainability #slowtravel #creativeeurope #art #artist #luovaeurooppa
