Thousands of cultural policy makers will gather in Barcelona between 29 September – 1 October to set the global agenda for culture in the years ahead.
Arts Council of Wales and Wales Arts International will be putting the spotlight on culture and language as part of community well-being, including the work undertaken as part of the UN Decade of Indigenous Languages, thanks to the presence of poet, author, academic and archdruid Professor Mererid Hopwood and Head of Wales Arts International, Eluned Hâf.
Eluned Hâf said, “MONDIACULT is a hugely important cultural conference where ministers and cultural leaders from across the world gather to set the global agenda for culture and make commitments. Here in Wales, the Well-being of Future Generations Act 2015 enshrined in law that all public bodies in Wales must work to achieve 7 well-being goals as our shared legal responsibility towards a sustainable future, and one of these is a vibrant culture and thriving Welsh language.
