Landesvereinigung Kulturelle Bildung Bayern e.V.

The Landesvereinigung Kulturelle Bildung Bayern e.V. (LKB:BY), founded in 2006, is the central umbrella and professional association for cultural education in Bavaria. It plays a crucial role in networking actors, cultural and educational institutions, science, politics, and administration.

• Consultation and Support: The LKB:BY offers comprehensive consultation and support services for actors in cultural education to strengthen and professionalize their work.
• Networking: Through various event formats and networking activities, the LKB:BY promotes exchange and cooperation between different actors and institutions.
• Professional Discourses and Development: The LKB:BY actively participates in the further development of professional discourses and provides platforms for professional exchange and the development of new concepts in cultural education[1][4].

The LKB:BY is committed to the right to cultural participation and education for children, adolescents, and adults. It works to promote a comprehensive transformation of cultural education to fulfill the claim to participation in culture and education for as many people as possible. The organization positions itself on both theoretical and practical levels regarding current cultural challenges and strives for "education for sustainable cultural practice"[1][4].

• Rural Areas: A special focus of the LKB:BY is on the development of cultural education in rural regions of Bavaria. The project "Land schafft Kultur" is particularly noteworthy, as it strengthens cultural education in these areas through laboratories in all Bavarian districts and extensive interviews on site[4].
• Intergenerational and Diverse Approaches: The LKB:BY promotes intergenerational and diversity-conscious approaches in cultural education. Examples include events and workshops that deal with topics such as children and seniors making music or diversity-conscious cultural education[4].
