Learning from Bilbao: culture, innovation, and the sustainable transition.
The 2026 ENCATC Academy on sustainable cultural policy and management is an ENCATC flagship initiative that empowers cultural professionals, educators, researchers, and policymakers to take proactive steps in integrating sustainability within their organisations and across the cultural and creative sectors (CCS). Designed to equip participants with the knowledge and skills needed for the triple transformation—green, social, and digital, the Academy also aims to prepare organisations to respond to emerging challenges in the green transition.
Taking place in Bilbao (Spain) from 21-24 April 2026, by fostering a strong link between theory and practice, the Academy contributes directly to the objectives of the European Green Deal, the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and other key international frameworks. It is an event with a precise policy aim; it emphasises systemic change, actionable outcomes, and the consistent sharing of best practices, policies, and knowledge to advance sustainability in the CCS.
All costs for accommodation, lunches, dinners and transport are at participants expenses.
TICKET TYPES:
• ENCATC Members and Partners (MICHAEL CULTURE, NEMO, EUROCITIES, AAAE, TAPCS, ASEF): 140€
• Non-members: 200€
• Daily Pass: 75€
REIMBURSEMENT POLICY:
There is no possibility to have a refund of purchased tickets. Participants who are unable to attend can transfer their ticket to a colleague.
