2nd Culture.mondo International Roundtable: a report from Dubrovnik roundtable
In cooperation with Culture.mondo, an informal network of cultural portal experts based in Canada, Culturelink co-organized an international round table entitled 'Cultural Portals: A New Era of Cooperation'. The round table was held in Dubrovnik, Croatia from 20-22 October 2006.
Some 50 participants attended the event and represented over 40 cultural portals from all parts of the world: from Europe and the USA to Canada, Latin America, Africa, Asia and Australia. This diversity enabled a productive exchange of experiences and vibrant discussions. The cultural portals represented at the event can be roughly divided into two main groups: those aimed at wider audiences with a general interest in culture, and others targeting specific user groups like artists and cultural professionals (i.e. portals which are managed by cultural networks). The event served as a platform for the presentation of specific portals and discussions on various aspects of the main topic, ranging, among others, from new Web 2.0 technologies to virtual cultural networks, virtual international cultural cooperation and the measuring of success through an evaluation of portal activities. The event's agenda reflected the complexity of the operational contexts of cultural portals.
