A Right To Culture (A Campaign Begins)

A campaign was launched in Glasgow last week to demand “cultural” rights for all residents of the UK. “The campaign was launched in Scotland after the Cultural Commission – which delivered its plan for Scotland this summer – said all citizens should have four cultural rights: to fulfil their creative potential, to take part in cultural life, to an enriching communal life in a satisfying environment, and to participate in designing and implementing cultural policy. lasgow City Council also said it was creating a charter of “cultural entitlements” for its citizens, which may be implemented as early as next year.”
