Cultivating Cultural Co-operation

Cultivating Cultural Co-operation

3rd December 2003 - Department for Culture, Media & Sport, London


About this conference:
This conference looked at the impact and the future of the Culture 2000 programme.  The conference featured over 20 successful projects with UK partners as case studies, with each invited to present a summary of their aims and activities, as well as what went well (and not so well) during the implementation of their project.

The conference looked to the future as well, with a number of speakers exploring the opportunities and challenges of European cultural co-operation, and debate on improvements to future EU funding programmes in this area.
