The past twelve months have been a period of challenges and opportunities for culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities, in particular new and emerging communities. With each day that passes, we see the breadth of the contribution that migrants and refugees make to the social, economic and cultural life of South Australia, enriching communities in the metropolitan and regional areas and showcasing our State as an exemplar of peace, harmony and acceptance. As in 2012-13, this past year has seen a continuation of the growing interest in multiculturalism.

  • Asia-Pacific Centre for Arts and Cultural Leadership
    ASIA-PACIFIC CENTRE FOR ARTS AND CULTURAL LEADERSHIP CRICOS Provider no. 00121B The Asia-Pacific Centre for Arts and Cultural Leadership is a joint venture of the Adelaide Festival Centre and the University of South Australia. It brings together two South Australian institutions that are leading Australia in the arts and cultural sector and in engagement with the Asia-Pacific. Purpose The arts and cultural sectors have dramatically expanded across the Asia-Pacific, exemplified by the development of many new innovatively designed venues and arts centres and the emergence of many dynamic artists, companies and organisations. This growing industry now encompasses visual arts and crafts, music, dance and the performing arts as well as government and non-profit organisations, including museums and galleries, symphony orchestras, ballet and opera companies. Commercial ventures in film, contemporary music and computer gaming are also an integral part of the industry. To ensure that the investment in the arts and cultural sector across the Asia-Pacific produces the high quality outcomes and benefits to society that are possible, it is critical that we further develop the cohort of younger arts and cultural managers as well as that of more senior leaders in the sector. By providing world class training and education we can encourage and instill an understanding of the importance of culture in social cohesion and ‘place making’ for arts and culture practitioners as well as those in supporting areas of government and industry. To accomplish this, the Asia-Pacific Centre for Arts and Cultural Leadership: › provides high quality executive education programs for arts administrators at various levels of seniority from Asia-Pacific countries; › offers the University of South Australia’s Master in Arts and Cultural Management; › provides for the placement of interns within the Asia-Pacific; and › delivers research programs in Arts and Cultural Management and Leadership.
