What’s being debated at the seminar
"Claves prácticas para una autonomía cultural" is a seminar that approaches autonomy not as a fixed state, but as a dynamic process of collective construction. Drawing from concrete experiences like Cabanyal Horta, Can Batlló, El Punt, and CSOA l'Horta, it will analyze models of community organization, management of common goods, and forms of horizontal governance aimed at strengthening the cultural sovereignty of communities over their own projects.
The event proposes understanding cultural management beyond administrative tools: as a space for mediation, negotiation, and creating conditions to exercise that autonomy. Topics such as citizen participation, mutual support, and territorial roots will be discussed, in a context where cultural initiatives operate between public institutions, economic dynamics, and diverse regulatory frameworks.
Who’s participating
The seminar brings together collectives and projects with experience in cultural self-management, though specific names of speakers are not listed in the sources. The cited experiences—such as Cabanyal Horta (Valencia) or Can Batlló (Barcelona)—are examples of spaces that have developed collective management models and the defense of the commons, serving as a starting point for dialogue.
Access and requirements
Admission to the seminar is free, with no prior registration required. No minimum age or additional requirements are specified. As a space for reflection and debate, it is aimed at cultural managers, collective members, students, and anyone interested in alternative models of community organization.
