Culture
La Culture est le plus important composant de nos identités Européenne et Régionale. Elle représente à ce titre un élément clef pour encourager la coopération Régionale et Européene.
La richesse et la diversité culturelle doivent être préservée, mises en valeur et transmises aux générations future comme base du dialogue interculturel.
Les actions de l'ARE visent à défendre, promouvoir et aider les cultures Régionales et la diversité en soutenant les bonnes pratiques, les outils de gestion, les savoirs-faire concernant les opportunités de financement et en encourageant la création de partenariats.
Cultural tourism is concerned with a region's culture, especially its arts and cultural heritage, but increasing also it cultural landscape, its traditions and diversity. The promotion of cultural supply stands in a context of globalisation, of competition and of increased market transparence on the one side and of tourists looking for quality and prices on the other.
In autumn 2007, the European Commission launched an online public consultation on Multilinguism in the EU. More than 2,000 contributions were received and will be used to adopt a "Communication on multilingualism" on September, 17th 2008, including "proposals for actions that further promote language learning and linguistic diversity, and address citizens' needs as efficiently as possible".
Committee 3 has launched a working group on "Culture and its impact on health". Regions that dispose of experience in this field are invited to share their examples of best practice and to send their contributions. The work will lead up to a presentation in a European conference that is supposed to take place in autumn 2010.
Rainbow Paper II
"The Civil Society Platform for Intercultural Dialogue, the Rainbow Platform, was initiated in 2006 by EFAH (European Forum for Arts and Heritage) and ECF (European Cultural Foundation), and comprises over 200 civil society organisations and their individual members engaged in intercultural action throughout Europe - at local, national and international level." >
The AER Committee 3 played a major role in the current discussions on the new and future EU cultural policies, following the publication of the “Communication on a European Agenda for Culture in a Globalised World”.>
Heritage is the major component of our Regional and European cultural identities. As such, it has a vital role for strengthening regional and European co-operation, mutual understanding and unity.
Cultural cooperation, a key element for strengthening regional and European co-operation, has been at the heart of AER activities for many years and cultural heritage is a central priority for Committee 3.
