With this closing conference for the Mind the Gap-project we ask:
Are arts and arts education ready to challenge themselves and their formats, work towards more inclusive designs and working methods, and thus step up and take the roles the UNESCO framework ascribes to it? Broad participation and inclusion of all children and young people is necessary to renew arts and arts education, and to contribute through the arts to tackle societal challenges. Child poverty, migration, war and climate crisis, marginalisation of groups and individuals, geopolitical tensions and intergenerational differences forge gaps in the societal tissue that binds us together and prevent the realisation of children’s cultural rights. How can the arts and arts education take part in repairing and recreating that strong social tissue?
