Mutual Cultural Heritage

Mutual Cultural Heritage (or Gemeenschappelijk Cultureel Ergoed, GCE) is a policy term used by the Dutch government.

CIE is very active in this field. You can find an overview of our activities when clicking the button at the right.

Besides our own activities we have established a resource centre on mutual heritage where an overview per country can be found. there is also more information provided on policies and research on mutual heritage .

CIE identifies partners in and for the priority countries of the mutual cultural heritage policy. We initiate local and international meetings with partners from The Netherlands and local priority countries. 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.
