Description of the policy/measure
Peru participates, as part of acquired commitments, in various "iber" programs: ibercultura viva (2013), iberescena (2006), ibermusicas (2011) and ibermedia (1998). these initiatives seek to strengthen cultural policies and encourage activity in the various sectors involved, in and among ibero-american countries. these programs offer financial aids to foster the creation, distribution, mobility and promotion of performing arts shows, cinematographic and musical works, and the strengthening of community-based cultural policies, as well as the development of capacities, spaces of diffusion (festivals) and the diversification of contents. it also allows for synergy among creators from different countries, encouraging the generation of networks and stimulating regional dialogue. the iber programs actively influence the creative sector on fundamental issues for their development, such as the generation of innovative languages in the arts, the mobility of works and the promotion of spaces for meeting and dialogue that allow for the generation and development of special policies, actions and projects. finally, they are spaces and platforms that allow for the knowledge, dialogue and exchange of experiences among our countries in cultural matters, thus renewing interregional ties between public managers and officials in culture.
