The Council of Europe and the United Nations World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO) will work together to develop the opportunities tourism offers to local communities and to enhance the tourist experience along the European region’s Cultural Routes. Launched by the Council of Europe in 1987, the Cultural Routes demonstrate how the heritage of the different countries and cultures of Europe contributes to a shared and living cultural heritage, while supporting sustainable tourism and dialogue.
The European Union (EU) held a High Level Conference on “Rebuilding Europe with Culture” on 8 December, gathering EU and national decision-makers to discuss Europe’s response to the urgent needs of the culture sector, roughly one year after the EU launched its unprecedented historical financial plan for the recovery of European economy after the Covid-19 pandemic.
A European partnership gathering cultural networks, organisations and a region has won a grant from the European Commission to carry out a study on the linkages between culture and health in Europe, carry out pilot projects and make a set of policy recommendations to improve opportunities for actors in the field.
Culture Action Europe has just published Culture in the EU’s National Recovery and Resilience Plans. It offers an overview of the place of culture in the National Recovery and Resilience Plans (NRRPs) of EU Member States and also follows up on the call by the European cultural and creative sectors, and backed by the European Parliament, to specifically earmark at the very least 2% of each NRRP for culture.
