Ask, Pay, Trust Campaign Meeting: Towards the Culture Compass: A Blueprint Sector
On the 29 of September, Culture Action Europe officially published Towards the Culture Compass: A Sector Blueprint, a collectively-written discussion paper that proposes a direction for European cultural policies.
As the European Commission prepares its new cultural strategy, the Culture Compass, expected in November 2025, approximately 30 cross-border European cultural networks, members of Culture Action Europe, have worked together to develop a complementary vision.
Networks collaborated around key priority topics: 1) artistic freedom; 2) working conditions; 3) artistic research, culture and innovation; 4) international cultural relations; 5) culture and health and well-being; 6) culture and sustainability; 7) cultural participation; 8) access to cultural and arts education; 9) culture and security; 10) culture and digital.

During this ASK PAY TRUST campaign meeting, we’ll step guide you through the paper, hear from some of the contributors about their experience and connect to next action steps in the campaign.
