We are pleased to announce that researchers, Dolgorsuren Jamyan and Jargalsaikham Tsamba, are preparing a cultural policy profile of Mongolia as part of WorldCP – the international database of cultural policies.
The profile has the support of the Arts Council of Mongolia, and is financially assisted by the Asia-Europe Foundation, which acts as the regional secretariat for WorldCP-Asia.
WorldCP will be a central, web-based and continuously updated database of country-specific profiles of policies that relate to culture. Modelled on the Council of Europe/ERICarts Compendium of Cultural Policies and Trends in Europe, it will also provide the capacity to monitor and analyse global trends in key aspects of cultural policies. The WorldCP website (www.worldcp.org) was launched in October 2011.
IFACCA is currently in discussions with organisations in all regions (Africa, Asia, the Pacific, the Americas and the Mediterranean) to develop a range national cultural policy profiles. IFACCA is working to develop a Spanish version of www.worldcp.org during 2013.
