CULTURAL POLICY RESEARCH CAMPAIGN 2023
The compendium marks the launch of the 2023 cultural policy research campaign “Silencing Dissent? On Barriers to Freedom of Artistic Expressions” and explores the current challenges and framework conditions for artists’ creativity. In the coming months, the platform will publish several reports written by cultural policy expert Andreas Wiesand and invite the general public to participate in various interactive formats (e.g. webtalks, online surveys, interview screenings).
Expert Community
The Compendium’s country profiles are written by a dedicated group of independent experts in cultural policy research. Together they form a dynamic and transnational community of practice.
Members
As an Association, the Compendium is able to maintain its services with the help of committed members – from national ministries dealing with culture to independent cultural organisations.
