I read through this report and I'm sort of 'meh'. The idea is to follow in the footsteps of the UNESCO declarations on Open Educational Resources (OER) (2019) and Open Science (2021) to do something similar with Open Culture. But culture is rather more complex. In the end, the group limited its focus to Open Cultural Heritage, and to exercise more flexibility in the choice of 'instrument' supporting the objective. And as always there's a call to galvanize the open community and form a coalition. This sort of document - and the movement is flush with them - reflect to my mind the privilege and exuberance of the live in-person workshop or conference. We need to balance that with insight into what people without access or ownership over cultural resources might want or need.
