Abstract:
This paper is the outcome of a round table event that took place on the 4th of June2015 and which was organised in the context of the 8th EU-LAC Summit / 2nd EUCELAC Summit of 10-11 June 2015. This initiative, taken by the EU-LAC Foundation in partnership with the Centre for Fine Arts in Brussels (BOZAR), with the support of the European Commission - DG DEVCO, EUNIC and More Europe - external cultural relations, had the objective of strengthening the relations between Europe, the Caribbean and Latin America. More than 20 experts from different backgrounds - academics, members of international institutions, artists, journalists and specialists from private and public sectors and civil society - from those regions gathered to discuss the theme “Urban Development and Public Space: Culture as a Driver for Cities” which was in line with the Summit’s theme “Shaping our Common Future: working for prosperous, cohesive and sustainable societies for our citizens”.
