Our Letter to the Cabinet Secretary on Cultural Diplomacy & Exports

Culture Counts wrote to the Cabinet Secretary for Constitution, External Affairs and Culture, Angus Robertson MSP, to share outcomes from a recent meeting of our members.

We thanked the Scottish Government staff who kindly attended our recent meeting and provided an update on what is happening within the areas of international, culture and exports.

Our letter covers;

  • Office for Cultural Exchange: an idea developed by Culture Counts members in our Manifesto for 2021

  • Exports Pathways: seeking support for the arts, heritage, and creative industries to develop a relationship with the Global Scots network

  • Cultural Diplomacy Strategy: proposing Culture Counts and the Scottish Government to host a joint online event to ensure that the culture sector helps to inform the Cultural Diplomacy Strategy
