Cultural Production and Cultural Policy Zeppelin University

Overview

In times of violent geopolitical upheavals and crises of planetary proportions, cultural work in highly heterogeneous societies means creating spaces and infrastructures for cross-cultural dialog. A particular focus of the Cultural Production and Cultural Policy program at Zeppelin University is therefore on the analysis and design of transformation processes and international cooperation.

Anyone who plans transdisciplinary cultural events, curates exhibitions, directs festivals, develops concert programs or cultural policy program lines for regions and institutions today not only needs an artistic sensorium and management skills, but also a sense of social and political responsibility as well as the communicative ability to coordinate participation processes.
