Conference sessions
Fair culture and music in Africa
Presented in partnership with Live|Arts|Lab
UNESCO’s 2005 Convention on Cultural Diversity established fairer cultural trade as an international legal principle, but implementation has largely fallen short. This session features arts workers, cultural policy experts and activists reporting on the work developed earlier in the week at the Live|Arts|Lab, a cultural policy summit bringing together world leaders to develop strategies for sustainable local development within Africa’s music ecosystem.
