Debats program / Discussions will be developed on a range of themes:
30 August Friday
• Cultural policies in Europe > Fri 30.08 – 11am > 12.30pm
Coordination: Bénédicte de Brouwer (Cultural Representative for Wallonia-Brussels) and Gudrun Heymans (Cultural Representative for Flanders)
This discussion will help us understand the current changes we are experiencing, the opportunities offered by the future ‘Creative Europe’ programme, and the importance of cultural cooperation in Europe. The session will end with an open debate.
The Cultural Representatives for Flanders and Wallonia-Brussels are the national points of contact for information and support for cultural cooperation between the European Commission and Belgian professionals. As of 2014, these representatives will be responsible for Creative Europe, when it will take on the new name of the ‘Creative Europe Desk’.
Participants:
Pascal Brunet, Director of Relais Culture Europe
Paul Dujardin, CEO & Artistic Director of BOZAR
Emilie Wacker, Théâtre National Villes en scène/Cities on stage
Julia Pouply, Head of political questions at Culture Action Europe
Gudrun Heymans, Cultural Representative for Flanders
Bénédicte de Brouwer, Cultural Representative for Wallonia-Brussels
• Local culture > Fri 30.08 – 11am > 12.30pm
Coordination: Centres Culturels bruxellois
Any cultural policy implemented at city, town or regional level, requires reflection on everyone’s contribution to the services offered by different parties in these areas. The ‘Centres Culturels bruxellois’ play a very specific role in this thought process, as everything they do is more geared towards raising awareness and offering better access to Culture, a fundamental right of every citizen. How do they work? What roots can they lay down to make it easier for people to exercise this right? What role do they play in the Brussels urban landscape? These are just some of the questions that the ‘Centres Culturels bruxellois’ will be attempting to answer.
The ‘Centres Culturels bruxellois’ are a network of 12 Cultural Centres recognised (or in the process of being recognised) by the Wallonia-Brussels Federation. Their role includes encouraging and nurturing relationships between local organisations and its members throughout Brussels. This involves creating platforms for debate for the Brussels sociocultural sector on issues relating to the challenges of offering local culture.
Participants:
Emir Kir, Mayor of Saint-Josse-ten-Noode
Martin Smets, Director of Espace Senghor
Frédéric Fourmes, Director of Forest Cultural Center

It is coordinating the discussion entitled ‘Investment, Patronage, Sponsorship and Crowdfunding, what does the future hold for cultural funding in our country’ for the Brussels Creative Forum 2013. This discussion will look at new economic governance models for the cultural and creative sectors. The current economic challenges we face are driving us to come up with an approach to funding culture that will fit in with a changing world. This event will offer an opportunity to find out about and discuss concepts as wide-ranging and important as investment, tax shelters, private and corporate patronage, sponsorship and crowdsourcing.

Michel Nétens, CEO of Promethea

31 August Saturday
• Professional integration > Sat 31.08 – 11am > 12.30pm
Coordination: Denis Stokkink (European Think Tank ‘Pour la Solidarité’)
Culture creates all sorts of jobs and qualifications: its role in social and professional integration is not in any doubt. But how can we offer training in the creative and cultural professions? What initiatives does Brussels offer to help a large number of jobseekers to join the job market through this sector? And in practical terms, how should we structure policies that encompass culture, training, social economy and inclusion?
This round table event will attempt to answer these questions by looking at the personal experiences of different people who have been affected by these challenges.
Pour la Solidarité (PLS) provides services for socio-economic and political stakeholders who are keen to operate in a professional manner on the European solidarity stage. Pour la Solidarité works closely with European institutions to cater to the needs of solidarity stakeholders in Europe. They are keen to play an active role in putting together long-term public policies, increasing companies’ interest in their corporate social responsibility, promoting the social economy and encouraging members of the public to get involved in the decision-making process to face up to the many emerging challenges and help to build a Europe that espouses solidarity and social cohesion.

• Architecture and urban planning > Sat 31.08 – 2.30pm > 4.30pm
Coordination: Christophe Emma-Dessouroux (Archi Urbain)
Do architecture and urban planning play a cultural role in cities? Is there a place for interaction between culture and architecture? What would urban planning be without culture? To answer these questions and look at how culture and architecture can work together, Mister Emma (Archi Urbain) has invited a number of guests to debate the issues.
Emma C. Dessouroux produces and presents Archi Urbain on Télé-Bruxelles. Broadcast for the last seven years, with more than 250 reports lasting 12 minutes each, this programme has become must-see TV for anyone involved in architecture and urban planning in Brussels.
Emma C. Dessouroux has become a pioneer of online videos, thanks to the cultural information website misteremma.com, which he launched in 2003.

• Audiovisual material and the media > Sat 31.08 – 2.30pm > 4.30pm
Coordination: Noel Magis (Bruxellimage)
For several years, the intrinsic competitiveness of the film and audiovisual industries (know-how, creativity, innovation, cost etc.) has not necessarily been a key factor when it comes to producers’ choices. This competitiveness has often taken SMEs to neighbouring regions, particularly through the famous regional audiovisual investment funds.
After all, Brussels’ audiovisual sector boasts a huge array of advantages, including the presence of major television channels, leading media groups and an established core of communication agencies. The recent announcement about the creation of a media city in the Reyers district by 2020, along with the launch of a policy supporting audiovisual companies, offer great hope for the prospect of raising awareness about the need to support an industry that provides 5,000 jobs in the Brussels region. This event offers audiovisual professionals working in Brussels the chance to share their opinions with each other to work together to restore the competitive edge of local audiovisual companies.
Noël Magis has been in charge of Bruxellimage since November 2010. His role mainly involves defining, establishing and promoting the services offered by Brussels-based businesses in the audiovisual sector as a whole and, more specifically, those involved in film. He is also the author of a study of the film industry in the Brussels-Capital Region.
Participants :
Juan Bossicard, ICT Business Unit Manager ABE-BAO
