Handbook on cultural participation
A new handbook documents the current state of discussion and knowledge in Switzerland on the topic of cultural participation and shows how it can be promoted. The publication is available in three languages and is published by the National Cultural Dialogue.
The handbook contains articles in German, French and Italian, preceded by summaries in these three languages. The "Handbuch Kulturelle Teilhabe" is available from bookshops and can also be downloaded free of charge as a PDF from the websites of the Federal Office of Culture, the Conference of Cantonal Cultural Affairs Officers (KBK), the Cities Conference on Culture (SKK) and Seismo Verlag.
The National Cultural Dialogue was established in 2011 and brings together representatives of the political authorities and cultural promotion bodies of the cantons, cities, municipalities and the Confederation. Its work is based on an agreement from 2011 and the 2016-2020 work program adopted in April 2016. The political authorities form the strategic steering body of the National Cultural Dialogue with the head of the Federal Department of Home Affairs (FDHA), representatives of the Swiss Conference of Cantonal Ministers of Education (EDK), the Swiss Association of Cities (SSV) and the Swiss Association of Communes (SGV).
