A PROFILE OF AUSTRALIAN CULTURAL POLICIES

The International Federation of Arts Councils and Culture Agencies (IFACCA) and the Australia Council for the Arts are pleased to publish Cultural policies in Australia.

Cultural policies in Australia offers an invaluable profile of arts and cultural polices across all spheres of government. It charts the development of federal and state cultural agencies, policy relating to all artforms, public and commercial media, Indigenous affairs, heritage, education, training and economic policy.

As well as being an important stand-alone document, the Australian cultural policy profile will also become part of WorldCP, a central, web-based database of country-specific profiles of cultural policies, modeled on the highly regarded Compendium of Cultural Policies and Trends in Europe (www.culturalpolicies.net) which contains policy profiles of 41 European countries and Canada.

WorldCP is being developed by IFACCA and will be launched at the 5th World Summit on Arts and Culture, to be co-hosted by IFACCA and the Australia Council, with the support of Arts Victoria, in Melbourne in October 2011... CLICK HERE TO READ MORE
