ASEF Unplugged – Bengaluru
Reimagining a New Landscape: Cultural Policy Information System in the 21st Century
ASEF is gathering 10 cultural experts from Asia and Europe in Bengaluru, India on 28-29 January 2019 for a day and a half of closed-door conversation on cultural policy. The meeting will explore the nuances of cultural policy in Asia and Europe as well as seek practical actions to nurture and promote interest in cultural policy research in Asia.
A community of practice will come together for a collective debate and reimagining of the future of cultural policy in an increasingly technology-savvy world.
Key questions include:
- Who are the users/consumers of cultural policy?
- What information and data constitute cultural policy?
- What formats and channels are most suitable and relevant to users?
- Can cultural policy fit into today’s fluid digital environment?
With this meeting, a 1.5 day programme has been put together for reflections and concrete results to draw up a plan for future course of action.
This meeting is closed-door & by invitation only.
