Interregional Conference

This section presents the international conference "Regions and cultural diversity : a european and global dynamics" which took place in Lyon - France on 28th and 29th of September 2006. GERM was the scientific coordinator of this event (in partnership with the Observatory for Cultural Policies) that responded to the Rhône-Alpes Region’s wish to bring together researchers, artists, culture professionals, social, economic and political actors, as well as civil society representatives to define a new strategy for interregional cooperation through culture, to evaluate its foundations, stakes, objectives and potential, especially in implementing the 2005 UNESCO Convention on Cultural Diversity. Here can be found full texts of the interventions, minutes of the round table conferences, opening and closing discourses, press articles, and some photographs.
