Vaud culture commissioner retires
Nicole Minder, Head of the Department of Cultural Affairs of the Canton of Vaud, is retiring at the end of July 2024. The position will be advertised.
Under Minder's leadership, the Vaud Culture Agency (SERAC) was reorganized and expanded in order to implement new laws on cultural life and artistic creation as well as on movable and intangible cultural heritage. In particular, this has led to a strengthening of cultural promotion, writes the canton. This includes support for cultural creation with new calls for projects and grants as well as the development of cultural mediation, including in institutions.
Nicole Minder took office in 2015 and has been actively involved in strengthening intercantonal policy, including the arrangements of the Conference of Heads of Service and Delegates for Cultural Affairs such as Cinéforom and the Observatoire romand de la culture.
