DAPTC Dorset Cultural Strategy event Agenda
DRAFT Dorset Cultural Strategy 2021-2026​
Notes from Char Valley Parish Council Meeting 8th February 2021

Agenda item:

Dorset Cultural Strategy. Cllr Carey attended the DAPTC’s Consultation session on the new Dorset Cultural Strategy  (2021-2026) on 28th January. The county’s Cultural Strategy is being prepared by the Arts Development Company (ADC) on behalf of Dorset Council.The draft Cultural Strategy does identify the Environment as one of its ‘Overarching Priorities’, but the Climate and Ecological Emergency is not mentioned anywhere in the Strategy’s nine Ambition Statements.

Cllr Carey urged the ADC to include the Climate and Ecological Emergency explicitly and to prioritise cultural activities that help to build resilient and self-sufficient local  communities.

ACTION for CVPC Meeting 8th Feb: The CEE_WG now asks CVPC to consider supporting the following statement to be sent to the ADC:
“Char Valley Parish Council notes that the Climate and Ecological Emergency is not mentioned anywhere in the nine Ambition Statements of the Draft Dorset Cultural Strategy. We urge the Arts Development Company and Dorset Council to include the Climate and Ecological Emergency explicitly in its Ambition Statements and to prioritise cultural activities that help to build resilient and self-sufficient local  communities.”

Councillors present at the meeting voted unanimously that the above statement should be altered to recommend that the Climate and Ecological Emergency be included in ALL the Ambition Statements of the Cultural Strategy, and that the statement be sent to Dorset Council.

​Outcome: CVPC sent this representation on the Dorset Cultural Strategy to Dorset Council.
