The IMC World Forum on Music is considered one of IMC’s main contributions to setting the stage for the free celebration of music in the world.

 

The 2011 IMC World Forum on Music will focus on five areas which are of crucial importance to the world of music:

• Music as a tool for social change

• Current challenges and opportunities for music education

• Music distribution and export

• Music and development

• Youth: informal spaces

 

By seeking synergies across different sectors, this high-level forum will provide exceptional opportunities for all participants from different fields to engage in serious debates on current key issues. The work sessions during the Forum will be presented in a variety of formats: panel sessions with invited speakers, workshops, round table discussions and project presentations.
