What is the cultural horizon? Opening up perspectives to face ongoing transformations” that took place in Bucharest on 26-29 September 2018 and enjoyed an outstanding international presence.
This major international event focused on cultural heritage and thus contributed to the success of the 2018 European Year of Cultural Heritage. Congress was an opportunity for delegates from more than 35 countries in Europe and beyond to access the latest advancements in cultural management and cultural policy, education, training, practice, and research.

The aim of the ENCATC Congress is to provide an opportunity for academics, trainers and researchers from the cultural management and policy educational fields with cross-disciplinary interests to mingle with professionals, policy makers and artists and thus to bridge the knowledge gap, promote research esteem and the evolution of pedagogy.
