In October 2020, the Rome Charter Hybrid Conference hosted three days of debates, international interventions and dialogues dedicated to discuss the implications of the 2020 Charter of Rome in the development of sustainable cities and communities through participation in culture. This conference included eleven sessions online, all translated in English and in Italian, some of them held in Spanish and French. The content reflected over 50 stories, common questions and a collective reflection on how to build and develop better societies for the future.
During The Charter and the Quest for Equality session, Culture Action Europe’s Secretary General, Tere Badia spoke in conversation with Edgar Pieterse (Director, African Centre for Cities) and Johanne Bouchard (Observatory for Cultural Rights and Diversity).
This session focused on the elements of The Charter that consider how cultural policies must explicitly address the Inequalities that profoundly influence the participation of people in cultural life.
