Arts management for social impact
Designing cultural initiatives that generate measurable social value requires strategic thinking and hands-on project skills.
Art Management for Social Impact builds the knowledge and tools needed to do exactly that. The course develops a solid foundation in social impact thinking, community and stakeholder mapping, and critical approaches. It then moves into participatory practices, co-creation, and the operational models of independent spaces and grassroots cultural centres, with a focus on education and mediation. Throughout the course, AI supports a new learning approach by strengthening study methods, reflection, and applied problem-solving.

The final module consolidates core project skills - fundraising and calls, budgeting, governance, and project management - and concludes with a New European Bauhaus – based capstone project shaped into a credible, fundable proposal.
