Europe | Cultural Policy Research Award
![None](/media/2012/4/cpra2012.jpg)
Designed to foster academic and applied cultural policy research and to explore issues at stake in contemporary Europe, the Cultural Policy Research Award aims to contribute to new competence building among young scholars in comparative cultural policy research.
Through the CPRA annual competition, the programme partners aim to encourage and enable cultural policy researchers to take a step from evaluative (descriptive) to comparative applied research that can inform policymaking and benefit practitioners active in the field. The Award is devoted to research projects which shed light on contemporary European cultural issues and challenges by analysing them and offering policy solutions.
Since 2004 seven promising young researchers have won the Award which represents an important achievement for them in this discipline, and a key step in the production of new knowledge. By having more than 75 young researchers involved in the annual competition, the CPRA has widened the map of young cultural policy researchers in Europe, and raised their visibility and recognition.
