CUMEDIAE aisbl has joined a consortium of well respected social and economic research institutes, cultural managers and creative workers from six European countries, led by the University of Turku (Finland), in a three year long research project intended to reshape the economic and social perception of the Cultural and Creative Industries (CCIs).

SPECIAL PROJECTS
Culture Agora, a free-accessible wiki platform dedicated to arts, culture and creative industries, is one of the largest long-term sustainable projects managed by Cumediae. This user-friendly online meeting space creates visibility and encourages connectivity for creatives and organizations within the cultural and creative industries that are “like icebergs in the deep ocean” isolated and without access to useful information of the latest opportunities throughout Europe and Southern Mediterranean. Culture Agora is now probably the largest collection of updated information and opportunities on what’s happening in the creative industries in Europe. Would you like to find information related to your cultural interests or increase the visibility of your written or audio-visual content? Then stay connected with the arts by using Culture Agora. For more information also take a look at the presentation video.
