Discover the Observatory of cultural audiences and practices

By combining scientific rigor and exacting standards with professional expertise in terms of survey methodology and analysis, the Observatory lies at the interface between scientific research and the worlds of culture. The project team works in collaboration with a wide range of partners, including cultural and leisure organizations and institutions, local authorities and scientific culture networks. The result is tailored, localized studies that help the Observatory to shed light on public debates and contribute to the development of dialogue between science and society on cultural issues.

This morning's program includes a presentation of the Observatoire, as well as current and forthcoming surveys. In particular, participants will have the opportunity to find out more about a survey already carried out at the Fonds Régional d'Art Contemporain Provence-Alpes Côte d'Azur (FRAC), and to witness the feedback from this collaboration.

The Observatoire des publics et des pratiques de la culture is a project supported and financed by the French Ministry of Higher Education and Research (formerly MESRI), coordinated within Aix-Marseille University by the MESOPOLHIS laboratory (UMR 7064).
