Open Call for Seminars & Workshops

Is culture and arts education inclusive? How do we implement children’s cultural rights in different countries? What does the future of children’s culture and arts education look like?

The first International Children’s Culture Forum in Finland takes place in the city of Tampere in fall 2019. The forum’s aims are to widen international co-operation and to deepen the shared understanding of the value base of children’s rights and their role in a well-functioning society.

There will be many interesting speeches, workshops and discussions on children’s culture. One of the confirmed key note speakers for the forum is Dr. Charlotte Svendler Nielsen, an associate professor at the University of Copenhagen in Denmark. She will speak about intercultural and interdisciplinary arts education.

The organiser Association of Finnish Children’s Cultural Centers welcome innovative examples of policies, practices and research on children’s arts and culture. They are looking for presentations or short workshops that describe or analyse at least one of the conference themes. Presentations can focus on policy, practice or research. The length of the presentation is limited to 20 minutes.
