STUDY ON NATIONAL AND REGIONAL BODIES THAT ARE ACTIVE ON THE ISSUE OF CULTURAL DIVERSITY (165p., 2005)

SUMMARY

The Study provides a panorama of all regional and international bodies that are “active on cultural diversity”. These bodies include: international and regional organisations, networks (in civil society, of universities, of foundations, etc), foundations and associations.

Their activity on cultural diversity can take different forms: some are active at political level, constituting “lobbying forces”, others can be said active in cultural diversity because of their activities (collection of cultural datas, completion of reports, etc).

The study further identifies relevant experts at international level, and it provides an exhaustive bibliography on the topic.
