Create and Counterpoints Arts Learning Lab on Collaborative Arts, Diversity and Social Justice

PDF

Read the report

In July 2020, Create and Counterpoints Arts, a UK-based arts agency dedicated to Art, Migration and Social Change, held a Learning Lab on Collaborative Arts, Diversity and Social Justice, which brought together artists, activists, policymakers and racial justice/ human rights advocates and activists, to think about how we might put the principles around ‘equality, diversity and human rights’ into practice in Ireland. The Learning Lab coincided with the European Union marking the 20th anniversary of the Race and Equality Directive (June 29th) and was framed in the context of the Irish Arts Council’s Equality Human Rights and Diversity Policy
and Strategy (2019).

This report document comprises an edited transcript of the conversations held that day.

Collaborative Arts Resource Pack

PDF

dowload resource pack

At the Create Networking Day (9th December 2020), close to two hundred delegates came together in a facilitated interactive session, entitled “Connect” which offered a chance to meet, talk, share, and strategise together. We collectively built a resource pack for the sector; talks, books, projects that have inspired, kept us going and which encourage our work as collaborative artists and cultural and/or community practitioners.

This resource, made up of everyone’s recommendations and co-produced by Create and Heart of Glass, is reflective of a sense of collective wisdom, provocation and support by our field of practice at this time.

Each resource can be accessed by clicking the heading for each item.

This strategy provides a framework to support the ecology, resources and relationships that will develop discourse, policy and next practice from 2020 to 2025. Our five strategic goals are designed to increase the reach of collaborative arts, enhance its value and ensure its ongoing sustainability. Our actions will create key focal points for the sector over the coming years.
