(1) Action: FROM CULTURAL RIGHTS TO CULTURAL AGENCY OF MARGINALISED COMMUNITIES Idea: To start a journey towards 2016 and beyond. We‟re asking you to form a small assembly (e.g. a community group, artist, activist, or cultural institution) in each Province; people who want to think about new ways of co-operating and cocreating. Blue Drum and others (e.g. Equality and Rights Alliance, Claiming Our Future, CAP, etc) will work with you to reset how community arts can transform the hidden lives of vulnerable people and communities that neither participate in the arts nor in society. Our vision is art and culture as a precious resource for the life on the island of Ireland far into the future. Community Culture Proposal 2015
