back to overview

In light of the 2024 UNESCO World Conference on Culture and Arts Education, this volume explores current global developments and challenges in the field. It reflects the outcomes of an international ERASMUS+ BIP Summer School held in Nuremberg in July 2023, bringing together over 60 young researchers from across the world.

Featuring renowned scholars and emerging voices, the book spans theoretical perspectives and practical approaches, addressing issues such as intangible cultural heritage, post- and decolonial theory, epistemic violence, and cultural sustainability. The contributions critically engage with UNESCO frameworks and advocate for a shift beyond Western- and Eurocentric paradigms.

This volume is a stimulating and invigorating read for researchers, practitioners and students from the domain of Culture and Arts Education and beyond.
