ENCATC Fellowship Award to bestow public recognition for excellence in our field

Today 16 May 2019, ENCATC is launching its first-ever call for nominations for its Fellowship Award!

The ENCATC Fellowship is a special gratitude biannual award and is being proposed in response to network's twenty-fifth anniversary. ENCATC established the Fellowship Award in order to give public recognition and reward an individual, group of people, or an institution that has demonstrated a significant (and consistent) contribution to the field of cultural management and/or cultural policy over a longer period of time. It is also an instrument for ENCATC to continue playing its role of one of the most engaged actors in our society.

The Fellowship Award is in line with ENCATC's mission, its multidisciplinary approach, values (sustainability, resilience, engagement, tolerance and dialogue, interaction and participation, and lifelong learning) and principles (inclusion, promotion of values and ethics in education and research, European and international networking and cooperation, and cross pollination).

The goal of the ENCATC Fellowship Award is to stimulate and recognise outstanding achievement in developing and maintaining an innovative yet consistent approach and commitment to positive change and to value remarkable and visionary leadership, creativity, and results in education, research, policy, and advocacy in the cultural management and/or cultural policy fields.

The Fellowship Award has a European scope, and the Award ceremony is held on a biannual basis.

From now until the deadline 30 June 2019 at 23:00 GMT, ENCATC members are invited to nominate for the Award individuals, groups of people, or institutions as candidates for Fellowship Award, who can also be NON-ENCATC members. 

The 2019 ENCATC Fellowship Award laureate will be announced on 2 September.

The Award will be presented at a formal ceremony to be held on 2 October during the ENCATC Congress on Cultural Management and Policy from 2-5 October 2019 in Dijon, France.
