Cultural Equalities Now conference Friday 9 December 09.00-17.00 BM
Stevenson Lecture Theatre
Where next for equalities and diversity in the culture and arts sectors?
The policy and funding landscape has changed dramatically in recent times
and the full implications of this are still not yet clear for the culture
and arts sectors.
Join some of the UK's most interesting thinkers, including Mark O'Neill,
Bernadette Lynch, Bonnie Greer, Sandy Nairne, Helen Weinstein and Rita
Mclean to tackle the questions facing museums, galleries, heritage sites and
libraries and archives today.
This conference is for practitioners, policy makers and researchers
interested in diversity in the cultural sector. The talks will focus on
keeping the access and diversity agenda alive as budgets shrink, who funds
and supports this work now, the opportunities and threats of the Big Society
and Localism, the effect of the new Equalities Act on different
organisations, and changing approaches to inclusion in the sector
