The Central BEYOND edition is CAE’s biennial flagship gathering. It brings together members, civil society organisations, policymakers, artists, researchers, and cultural workers to collectively identify key challenges, policy opportunities, and future directions for culture in Europe.
As the central moment in the BEYOND cycle, it allows CAE to:
- Take the pulse of the sector
- Surface emerging trends and structural concerns
- Shape strategic policy messages and advocacy objectives
- Create cross-sectoral alliances and mobilise political attention
- Engage with members and partners in person
Central BEYOND is where culture meets policy at scale, and where the sector articulates its vision for a more inclusive, democratic, and sustainable Europe through culture.
