Innovate, participate: A cultural policy agenda for The Netherlands

Publisher Council for Culture ,
01 March 2007, Netherlands

On 6 March 2007, the Council for Culture (Raad voor Cultuur) presented the Dutch government with recommendations under the title ‘Innovate, participate’ (Innoveren, participeren) relating to the agenda for cultural policy in the coming years and the government’s plans for a new subsidies system. An English version of the section on the 'Cultural Policy Agenda' [Agenda cultuurbeleid] has been published by the Council. The section contains an analysis of current social developments, at both national and international level, followed by recommendations for future cultural policy. The document is intended as a source of inspiration/input for the new Minister of Education, Culture and Science, Mr Ronald Plasterk, who took office in February.
