The Cultural Engagement Framework celebrates our diversity and
creates opportunities for all Australians to participate in our
cultural life. It includes: - Indigenous Australians - People
with a disability - Multicultural Australia - Young people -
Regional and marginalised communities Young People and the Arts
The Australia Council values the important contribution that
young people make to the vitality of Australian cultural life.
We recognise the fundamental importance of work created by, for
and with young people including within educational settings. We
recognise that young people’s opportunities to participate in
and enjoy the arts may also be affected by issues relating to
disability, cultural diversity, Aboriginality and living in
regional or remote communities. We aim to - develop pathways for
young artists into the arts profession - promote, recognise and
publish Australian best-practice examples of art by, for and
with young people and the arts, including partnerships between
artists and teachers
