This practical and reflective blueprint has been meticulously designed to support arts and culture professionals who are committed to building a more equitable and inclusive sector.
This training module was created in response to a growing awareness across Europe that diversity must transcend being merely a surface-level ambition; it must become a systemic practice. While many cultural leaders acknowledge the importance of inclusion, translating these intentions into tangible actions remains a significant challenge. Artists and culture professionals with migration backgrounds continue to encounter barriers in accessing opportunities, resources, and recognition. This training aims to address those barriers and provides actionable tools for dismantling them.
At the core of this training is a comprehensive checklist, designed to assist organisations in assessing their current practices and identifying concrete steps for progress. Divided into foundational and advanced actions, the checklist allows institutions of all sizes and capacities to embark on their inclusion journey or deepen their existing commitment to equity. It is not intended as a one-time tool but as a living resource to guide reflection, track impact, and foster accountability.
Developed through cross-border collaboration and informed by extensive research, surveys, and lived experiences, this module offers more than recommendations—it offers a roadmap. Whether you are starting from scratch or building on existing work, you are invited to explore, adapt, and utilise this guide to shape long-term change within your organisation and community.
