Event report #3: EU action for culture in Africa, Caribbean and Pacific

In June 2021, culture Solutions supported the organisation of the international “ACP-EU Culture Webinar: Towards a sustainable cultural and creative industry in African, Caribbean and Pacific countries” by providing conceptualisation and execution, methodological and content-related support to speakers involved, mainly from ACP countries.

This Event report aims first to inform professionals and operators of the culture and creative sectors, in Europe and beyond, about current trends and opportunities in the ACP-EU Culture programme. And second, it summarises the main take-aways and lessons learned from the seminar, clustered around 5 themes (digital acceleration, CCI economics, access to culture, decent employment and sustainability), from which EU actors can identify opportunities for external cultural action.
