Professionalisation of Cultural Agents
The relationship between economy and culture cannot be reduced merely to the wealth-generating and job-creation capacities of activities in the culture sector. It is also reflected in the new challenges faced by creators to cope with the demands of the markets they use to distribute what they create. This requires creators to be better trained and more professional. One part of Multilateral’s work is to launch training, consultancy and support initiatives, and to design specific projects which adjust personal artistic initiatives to professional projects
