Webinar HOW TO ENGAGE YOUR COMMUNITY

Continuing our Webinar series, we are exploring the question How to engage the communities? and invite you to join the session on 12 September, 10CET in Zoom to hear more about it. This webinar is part of the BSR Cultural Pearls 2025 Culture and Resilience Action plan Developemen phase when the candidates are in the process of shaping their visions, but we think the topic could be interesting for much wider audience and proffessionals from various fields.

The webinar lead by Ida Brændholt Lundgaard will share insights from the Danish project fund Art and Culture in Vulnerable Residential Areas, organized by the Danish Agency for Culture. The fund supports locally rooted partnerships between social housing stakeholders, residents, cultural workers, and artists, with co-creation being a key requirement for all projects. Ida will explain why this approach is crucial, what co-creation can contribute, and how projects are implemented through site-specific practices, learning, and method development. She will also share a few concrete examples of these projects.

For further reading, more information about the projects can be found on the Palaces and Culture Agency website in Danish (or in your own language with the help of google translate) Puljen Kunst og kultur i udsatte boligområder (slks.dk) 

The presentation will be followed by a conversation, inviting questions and the sharing of personal experiences with co-creation.
