On 27 November 2006, Interarts and the Forum Cultural Mundial organised a full-day programme under the title: � Cultural rights and practice: moving from law to life�. The programme contained a plenary session and four work shops. The general title of the programme referred to the objective of finding ways to translate cultural rights laws and regulations to policies and concrete actions with positive outcomes. The plenary session consisted of two key-note presentations (one on the legal framework and the other one on the challenges for the practice) by two experts and short commentaries on policies and actions by other experts. The introductory and more general plenary session was followed by four workshops that concentrated on specific themes relevant to the cultural rights scenario. The workshops tackled the issues of Access to Culture (workshop 1), Cultural Rights of Minorities (Workshop 2), Instruments and policies (workshop 3) and the Role of Artists in Cultural Rights (workshop 4).
