Learning unit contents

The idea of lifelong learning is a guiding thread in public cultural policy. The purpose of this idea is to aim at the development of citizenship through critical reflection and collective action. The knowledge of the past or major works, artistic taste, these are so many practices that may or may not be part of the social heritage that is transmitted to us, an uneven heritage which must be taken up and appropriated, but which helps forge our identities.

Thus it is desirable that a practitioner within the cultural sphere should understand the basis of our cultural policy and its many aspects (youth policy, libraries, cultural centers, arts...), and be able to design his or her own cultural project.
