Decreet Sociaal Cultureel Volwassenenwerk (Social Cultural Adult Education Decree) 2018

The law, effective since January 1, 2018, introduces a new decree on social-cultural adult education, aimed at providing flexibility to address contemporary societal challenges. It delineates seven core principles: recognizing social adult education as a significant civil actor, supporting organizations engaging diverse groups through leisure activities, enhancing social-cultural participation, fostering innovation and quality through an open approach, emphasizing qualitative standards, clarifying roles, and operating on three levels based on geographic scope. This includes organizations in Dutch-speaking regions, specific regions, and those with a supra-local focus in social-cultural adult education. This sector encompasses various initiatives aimed at promoting social inclusion and cohesion through adult education and cultural activities. While not explicitly mentioning cultural heritage, these initiatives often incorporate elements of cultural heritage to foster social engagement and cohesion. The decree pertains to Pillar 1 (Cultural heritage for an inclusive Europe: participation and access for all). It pertains to the social aspect of the triple transformation.
