Cultural Governance in the Netherlands

Stichting Kunst & Zaken,
01 January 2004, Netherlands

The importance of adequate management, governance and supervision is widely acknowledged; not only in the business sector, but fortunately to an increasing extent in the not for profit sector as well. This is understandable since proper governance normally leads to expertly, efficiently, independently and transparently operating organizations.
This publication is a summary of the ‘Handleiding Cultural Governance’ [Cultural Governance Manual], as published by the stichting Kunst & Zaken. The manual is a guide for the practical implementation and application of the 23 Recommendations for Cultural Governance. The manual is only available in the Dutch language and contains legal and organizational models and draft articles of association for each respective model that are ready for immediate use by the cultural sector.
