Are you curious about bringing an interdisciplinary and cross-sectoral practice to your work? Are you keen on interacting meaningfully with professionals from another sector and addressing global challenges? Check out the 2024, Global Cultural Relations Programme (GCRP).
By Creatives Unite NewsroomThe Global Cultural Relations Programme (GCRP), the Cultural Relations Platform’s flagship training programme, is a unique opportunity that brings together practitioners from around the world to create meaningful connections and discuss cross-cultural collaborations. The 2024 edition of GCRP is open to cultural and creative professionals OR participants working in the fields of creating safer societies. It is an opportunity to build your skills in interdisciplinary and cross-cultural collaborations through a carefully designed, innovative, and interactive learning programme and collaborate with professionals from around the world, facing similar challenges and opportunities.
Participants will be able to connect with young practitioners and change-makers working in the field of culture or in creating safer societies to engage in peer-to-peer learning. They will also be able to engage in in-depth discussions on the intersectionality of culture and creating safer societies to identify strengths in bringing together the two sectors for potential future collaborations. This year the GCRP will take place in Marrakech, Morocco from 25 – 28 November 2024. Find out more
