Culture as a Goal in the Post-2015 Development Agenda

Culture as Goal in the Post-2015 Development Agenda is a document jointly published by IFACCA, Agenda 21 for Culture, the International Federation of Coalitions for Cultural Diversity and Culture Action Europe. The four organisations have worked together to develop a document that outlines their suggestion for a goal specifically focussed on culture: Culture as Goal in the Post-2015 Development Agenda.

Culture as Goal in the Post-2015 Development Agenda, which outlines the justification for a goal for culture and puts forward several targets and indicators will be submitted to various key UN bodies. The wording suggested for the goal is: Ensure cultural sustainability for the wellbeing of all.

This analysis is a timely contribution to the debate at the World Culture Forum, taking place in Bali, Indonesia 24-27 November 2013, on the theme of 'The Power of Culture in Sustainable Development'.
