2022 - 2024
FACE joined in 2022 the Pact for Skills, the first of the flagship actions under the European Skills Agenda, and signed up to the Charter and its key principles: Promoting a culture of lifelong learning for all; Building strong skills partnerships; Monitoring skills supply/demand and anticipating skills needs; Working against discrimination and for gender equality and equal opportunities.
FACE endorsed the Creative Pact for Skills (C-P4S) that is focusing on the most urgent horizontal skills needs, relevant for the Cultural and Creative Industries ecosystem:
- Skills and competences for the digital environment
- Management, funding, business, and entrepreneurial skills
- Skills to support and integrate the green transformation
- Transversal and transformative skills that lead to cross-sectoral innovations
- Technical skills, arts and crafts to preserve the cultural and creative heritage
- Hands-on and ‘on the job’ skills solutions
In 2023, FACE will dedicate resources in the Working Group on skills for the green transformation to:
- Collect and analyse existing contributions concerning the identification of skills for the green transformation in the cultural and creative industries (CCIs), as well as on relevant re-skilling and upskilling initiatives in this area.
- Foster an initial discussion among Working Group members on the meaning of the green transformation, and on skills relevant to it.
