Creativity and Culture
Special feature
Measures and initiatives of creativity and culture is streamlined across different policy domains at the Flemish level. Creativity and culture is a joint responsibility of the Flemish Minister of Youth, the Flemish Minister of Education and Training and the Flemish Minister of Culture. The Flemish Government also funds organisations active in this field.
Highlights
In 2010 and 2011, the Flemish Government took many measures to support cultural expression and access to culture for young people. Youth culture was put forward as a priority for local and provincial youth policy. This led to many cooperation projects between different local actors on this theme.
