The EU gives culture an important place in development cooperation by: * systematically integrating the cultural aspect in all its policies, projects and programmes, * funding the preservation of cultural heritage and the emergence of viable cultural industries, * covering living culture and cultural heritage - both important for growth, jobs and cultural identity, * encouraging its partners to include culture in their own poverty reduction strategies and national development plans. Unlike other donors, the EC gives priority to promoting and supporting its partners' culture rather than focusing on the promotion of its own culture.

ICACD Secretariat was established in 2005 as an advocacy body committed to pushing forward cultural considerations into the policy development framework of Africa.

At least since the early 1990s, the cultural field has lamented the fact that it is a disaggregated and distributed policy field. Policy agendas and new practices emerge in specific contexts, pushed along by actors and organizations that have particular interests. Leaders have increasingly become aware of the need for a consistent and powerful collective action agenda -or a common set of ideas recognized by most arts leaders, artists, arts activists and advocates as important issues for debate, dialogue, and action. \n\nThe 2008 National Performing Arts Convention was a self-conscious effort to answer this clarion call-to bring together arts leaders across disciplines to learn from each other, identify common goals, and advance a field-wide agenda. Was collective action possible? What were the constraints and opportunities for action?
