Parliament has shown its commitment to recognising cultural diversity within the field of international law, by adopting a Convention within UNESCO on Cultural Diversity on 20 October 2005 in Paris.
The purpose of this Convention is to promote and protect the diversity of cultural content and artistic expressions. Furthermore, it aims to facilitate the development and adoption of cultural policies and appropriate measures for the protection and promotion of the diversity of cultural expressions and also to encourage wider international cultural exchanges.
The Convention establishes, at international level, the recognition of the sovereign right for states and governments to draw up and adopt cultural policies allowing the development of their own cultural sectors.
The Convention acknowledges that cultural diversity is strengthened by the free flow of ideas and reaffirms the importance of freedom of thought and the diversity of the media. It recognises the right of States to adopt audiovisual policies and foster their audiovisual industries. It reaffirms the important role of public service broadcasting for cultural diversity and media pluralism.
Hence our vote in favour."@en1
