Moving Forward on Arts and Education, a report on the mini-summit jointly hosted by IFACCA and the Australia Council in Melbourne, Australia in September 2005, has today been submitted to UNESCO. Coming from 16 countries including China, USA, India, Tanzania and Germany, most of the 29 delegates were senior officials from government agencies or major national and international organisations that have a responsibility for, or interest in, improving the quality of arts education in their countries. The report was prepared for the World Conference on Arts Education in Lisbon on 6-9 March 2006.
