Magazine
tourist excellence of the Caribbean and the Américas
Since 2005, there has been a continued voluntary and interinstitutional
collaboration with the magazine to take UNESCO’s message to
a wider audience, and without the usual dissemination costs. The
collaboration is obtained, specially through short and illustrated
papers with high impact towards a group of 10,000 readers for each
issue that is made up of tourists, entrepreneurs and travellers.
Such papers are written by people from outside the organization
and not necessarily representing the official opinion of this, and
emphasize, by suggestion of UNESCO, topics of high interest for
the Organization like for example crafts, underwater cultural heritage,
intangible heritage, masterpieces of this oral heritage, historical
centers, other heritage sites and different places that host UNESCO
projects or which show the wide cultural diversity and Caribbean
biodiversity.

EFAH
goes Culture Action Europe
Culture Action Europe is the new name of the European Forum
for the Arts and Heritage (EFAH) The new name and new brand were
launched at the 65th Trans Europe Halles meeting in Brussels on
the 24th of April 2008 and represent the ambition and hopes for
the future of the organisation. Our colleagues in Culture Action
Europe say thatwith the word ‘action’ they are stating
their ambition to be an active player at the European level. It
symbolises a shift in emphasis in their work, towards a more activist,
engaged and communicative organisation. The new strategy and action
plan all come together under the new logo and name, in order to
face the challenges for the arts and culture in Europe over the
next few years which are, in words of Culture Action Europe, enormous
– improved mobility, better social protection, increased funds
and a more secure place at the policy making table...
