THE 4TH WORLD FORUM ON MUSIC

A GREAT SUCCESS

There is a lot of knowledge and experience to share when motivated individuals and representatives of music organisations meet to discuss music and social change, which is precisely what happened at the 4th IMC World Forum on Music from 26th September to the 1st of October. Tallinn (Estonia), the European cultural capital 2011, offered the perfect setting for this international conference, which gathered nearly 300 music actors from some 50 countries all over the world.

We invite you to navigate through the website in order to experience the 4th IMC World Forum on Music you´ll find different overviews of main topics of the Conference as well as information about sessions, speakers and gaining a closer insight through the photo gallery.


 

The EMC supports the we are more campaign set up by Culture Action Europe.
we are more is a Europe-wide arts advocacy campaign that seeks to mobilize everyone who cares about culture in Europe to influence the political negotiations on the next EU budget (2014-2020) – an opportunity that only comes once every decade! The ultimate goal of the campaign is to contribute to a strengthened recognition of the role of arts and culture in the development of our European societies.
