Nos alegra enormemente dar la bienvenida al Ministerio de Cultura de El Salvador como miembro nacional de la Federación.

Leading up to the adoption of the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, several global cultural networks campaigned under the banner “The Future We Want Includes Culture” for the inclusion of one specific goal devoted to culture, or for the integration of cultural aspects across the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

This month the headlines highlight policy challenges presented by the digital age; and how governments and intergovernmental organisations are responding to them.

As a federation of government institutions, how governments can adapt – and indeed are adapting – to the changing environments and contexts in which they work is an ongoing priority being tackled by our members (which our World Summit and Americas Cultural Summit both clearly demonstrated).
