The British Council collaborates in this first seminar on Cultural Institutions and Sustainability organised by the Red Española para el Desarrollo Sostenible in collaboration with the Cátedra UNESCO de la Universidad Internacional de Andalucía and La Casa Encendida.
Arts and cultural institutions have a fundamental role in both promoting and achieving sustainable development. This pioneering seminar aims to sensitize and mobilize the Spanish cultural sector to engage with the new sustainability paradigm defined by Agenda 2030 and enshrined in the Paris Agreement. The seminar will also provide a learning opportunity to discover tools for understanding the new international context as well as the responsibility of the cultural sector in transmitting values.
