G20 Culture: Rome Declaration approved

At the end of the G20 Culture G20 that took place in Rome at Palazzo Barberini, Culture Minister Dario Franeceschini announced that the Rome Declaration of the G20 Culture Ministers was unanimously approved.

It is a document consisting of 32 points that “has been studied and shared in content for months among the countries”; “it is not a symbolic declaration,” Minister Franceschini clarified, continuing, "We should be really very proud of it. It will be talked about for many years as a starting point. Culture is introduced into the work of the G20.“ ”We started years ago to talk about the Blue Helmets of Culture, and in the document the issue of organizing national forces that together with UNESCO would intervene, not episodically, to protect the heritage of humanity passed. In the Rome declaration we emphasized training and in particular the Rome Heritage School, we stressed the issue of climate change and the issue of using digital systems," he added.

"It was a very rich debate and ends with a very important declaration, the’Rome Declaration of the G20 Ministers,’ which was unanimously approved. The G20 of culture has been made permanent,“ the minister concluded. ”We got, and we were very much looking forward to it as Italy, the commitment of all members to field national forces at the top of UNESCO to defend cultural heritage."
