European Agenda for Culture Endorsed by the Council
On 16 November, the Culture Council agreed on a European Agenda for culture which introduces a more structured system of cooperation and concrete priorities, on the basis of the Commission's proposals presented in May 2007. Indeed, the Council has endorsed three major objectives that will together form a common cultural strategy for the European Institutions, the Member States, and the cultural and creative sector:
(1) promotion of cultural diversity and intercultural dialogue;
(2) promotion of culture as a catalyst for creativity in the framework of the Lisbon Strategy for growth, employment, innovation and competitiveness; and
(3) promotion of culture as a vital element in the Union's international relations.
