Focus on promoting young people’s cultural participation

“As Rhineland-Palatinate’s presidency of the Conference of Ministers of Culture in 2026, we want to place a strong focus on the cultural participation of young people. As both Youth Minister and Minister of Culture of Rhineland-Palatinate, this is a matter of particular importance to me. Building on the findings of the Rhineland-Palatinate Youth Culture Survey, a fireside chat will provide an opportunity for an exchange between policymakers, cultural practitioners, and young people. The discussion will address how youth-appropriate cultural offerings can be developed and how funding and participation structures can be strengthened. For when we actively involve young people in cultural policy decisions, we can also sustainably strengthen their cultural participation.”
