Cultural Management: Building Knowledge and Developing Human Capacity
In 2005, Culture Resource launched the first training of trainers program in the field of Cultural Management in the Arab region. The program's objective was to create capacity within the region for training professionals working in the various fields of cultural management, such as management of theatres, galleries and museums, management of artistic groups, festival management and production management. The ultimate goal of this line of activity is to support the administrative and economic infrastructure of independent Arab cultural organizations.

The training of trainers' program consisted of three five day workshops that were designed and delivered by two highly qualified teachers from Croatia and Serbia. The European Cultural Foundation (ECF) helped in designing the program and supported it financially. The workshops included topics such as cultural policies, cultural infrastructure, management of cultural organizations and groups, cultural tourism and production management.

Also in 2006, Culture Resource organized two cultural management training workshops for beginning and early career managers in the Arab Region. The first workshop for North Africa and Sudan was organized in collaboration with "Culture Action", in Morocco and took place in Marrakech from 15 till 21 of September.

The second workshop, for Arab Mashreq countries, was organized in collaboration with "Makan -- House of expression", Jordan and took place in Amman from 24 till 30 of November.
