One of the strategy’s key outcomes is the emphasis on fair pay for artists, aiming to improve their economic conditions. Additionally, the strategy prioritises youth engagement, environmental sustainability, and educational initiatives, ensuring that cultural participation is inclusive and accessible. The document underscores the importance of cultural heritage, integrating traditional and contemporary cultural expressions, and promoting cultural diversity.
