Back to Resources

In the commitment to transferring knowledge across countries and among institutions, ENCATC established its International Knowledge Exchange in 2017 on the occasion of its 25th anniversary and 25th Annual Congress.

This initiative aims to have cultural management and policy publications find their places in libraries of institutions, universities, cultural organisations, and research centres across the globe. It's a way to have knowledge reach new audiences and bring valuable perspectives and insight to an institution in another country. The ENCATC International Knowledge Exchange follows 5 stands:
