Mutual Cultural Heritage Programme

 

MUTUAL CULTURAL HERITAGE PROGRAMME

Mutual cultural heritage represents tangible and intangible cultural heritage related to Dutch history in foreign countries. The Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science aim, through a mutual heritage programme, at cooperating with eight priority countries: Brazil, Ghana, India, Indonesia, Russian Federation, South Africa, Sri Lanka and Surinam.

CIE identifies partners in and for these priority countries and initiates local and international meetings with partners from The Netherlands and local priority countries, the so called Heritage Days. The outcome of the discussions and meetings are presented to the Dutch government to improve future cooperation policy. This formula is applicable to programs for many countries with mutual heritage.

CIE is currently involved in programs with among others Suriname, Sri Lanka, South Africa and the City of New York.  Various countries have expressed their interest in this stimulating formula.
