AEC Newsletter October 2019

We are proud to announce that Stefan Gies, chiex executive officer of AEC, has been elected board member of Culture Action Europe (CAE), the major European network of cultural networks, organisations, artists, activists, academics and policymakers.

The elections took place on Saturday 26 October, at the end of the 2019 edition of the Beyond the Obvious Annual Conference, which this year was focused on cultural practices in non-urban territories, hosted between Kreuzlingen (Switzerland) and Konstanz (Germany).

AEC & Advocacy: beyond the (business as) usual

In the past weeks, we participated in the International Music Forum - where a new president and new board members of the International Music Council were appointed -, and strengthened ties with our partners, such as ELIA and ENCATC, while keeping an eye out on political developments for culture and education at the EU level.

Towards a more sustainable AEC: what we can do for our planet

As a European community of researchers, performers, teachers and students, we could have a bigger impact than we could possibly have as individuals. Besides operating AEC in a sustainable way and advocating for sustainability with our partners, we want to support and encourage our members in their green activities.
