Abstract

Article 19, “Exchange, Analysis and Dissemination of Information”, is a key article for the implementation of the CCD. It is directly linked to the main objectives of the Convention, to encourage governments to introduce cultural policies and measures for diversity that address the different stages in the value chain of cultural expressions, from the creation, production, and distribution to access and enjoyment of cultural expressions. Specific attention will be given to cultural policy measures that protect and promote diversity (Arts 6, 7, 8) and projects of cooperation and innovative partnerships that reflect the spirit of the Convention (Arts 12, 13, 15, 16).

The INCP was initiated as a global ministerial network in the follow-up to the Stockholm Conference on Culture and Development (1998). It has been meeting annually since, involving 60 countries. The INCP created a horizontal and informal platform for peer consultation among ministers and senior officials of ministries of culture for the first time, inviting international NGOs to its consultations where appropriate.

    UNESCO had World Culture Reports published in 1998 (UNESCO (1998). World culture report, 1998. Culture, creativity and markets. Paris: UNESCO) and 2000 (UNESCO (2000). World culture report, 2000. Cultural diversity, conflict and pluralism. Paris: UNESCO). Both included substantial chapters on national and international practice of measuring culture, conceptual contributions on measuring the contribution of culture to human well-being as well as comparative statistical tables and culture indicators on e.g. public expenditures on culture, biodiversity and cultural diversity, the global cinema market and other data. Following readjustment of UNESCO’s publishing policy in light of decreasing resources, annual, bi-annual or otherwise regular Word Reports were abolished.

    The next UNESCO Culture World Report was published in 2009 (UNESCO (2009). UNESCO World Report. Investing in cultural diversity and intercultural dialogue. http://unesdoc.unesco.org/images/0018/001852/185202E.pdf), providing data related to the seven cultural conventions of UNESCO (ratifications, heritage sites and traditions) as well as demographic data, access to telecommunication, gender, highlights of the World Values Survey, languages, translations, education, literacy, curricula and university student mobility, newspapers, broadcast content, movies, recorded music repertoire and sales, international flows of selected cultural goods and services, tourism flows, environment, biodiversity and habitat, and economic development and innovation.

    UNESCO Doc. CE/09/2.CP/210/Res. of 17 June 2009, Resolution 2.CP 7. At its third ordinary session (Paris, 7–11 December 2009), the Intergovernmental Committee requested the Convention Secretariat to submit draft operational guidelines at its next session in Winter 2010, comprising the modalities of their implementation and their financing (UNESCO Doc. CE/09/3.IGC/211/Dec. of 10 December 2009, Decision 3.IGC 8); the Secretariat had provided a document outlining the provisions of Article 19 and the issues surrounding its implementation (UNESCO Doc. CE/09/3. IGC/211/8 of 2 November 2009).

    This might be the reason for the somewhat astonishing assessment by the UNESCO Secretariat of the Convention as expressed in the working document regarding the “Preparation of the Operational Guidelines on the exchange, analysis and dissemination of information (Article 19 of the Convention)”: The Secretariat concludes that “paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 of Article 19 are not intended for the Parties” and that “measures taken by the Secretariat to comply with its obligations under Article 19 […] do not require operational guidelines to be elaborated” (UNESCO Doc. CE/09/3. IGC/211/8 of 2 November 2009, p. 4). In the end, these activities expected from the Secretariat are intended to support the Parties, civil society and other partners in their joint efforts of implementing the Convention. For the sake of coherence, operational guidelines should not be understood as guiding solely Parties’ actions.
