ArtNexus in Albania
In 2021, ArtNexus was launched in Albania. The program works with Albanian artists and culture practitioners, state actors and civil society to strengthen artistic freedom and the rights of the artists. Our work is implemented by our local partners, and to implement the activities we use a range of tools, for example:
- Capacity-building workshops in areas such as intellectual property law and self-organization
- Building a network of international and national cultural experts
- Providing tools for programme/project development
ArtNexus contributes to improving the rights and conditions of Albanian artists and cultural practitioners. We aim for our targeted groups to practice freely and make a living from their art. We work with local partners to enable education in the field of art and support, aiming for the development of government regulations to better observe the needs of art and culture practitioners.
