Culture and education

Study concerning an inventory of the best practices linking culture with education

Following an open invitation to tender (DE), the European Commission selected the Pôle universitaire européen de Lorraine to carry out this study.

The aim of the study was to give an overall picture of current national actions which link culture (the visual arts, music, the performing arts, books and reading, cultural heritage) more closely with formal, non-formal and informal education, vocational training and young people. 

This 12-month study covers the 25 European Union Member States, the EEA signatory states as well as Bulgaria and Romania.

We invite you to read the report (only available in French) provided by the contractor as well as the executive summary (available in French and English).

We also invite you to have a look at the Compendium on initiatives and programmes:

Part 1: National actions 

Part 2: European actions
