Convocatoria 2025 – Programa Distrital de Gestión Cultural Comunitaria

The Programa Distrital de Gestión Cultural Comunitaria (PDGCC) of the Distrito Metropolitano de Quito, is an initiative of the Red Ecuatoriana de Cultura Viva Comunitaria (REDECVC) and the Asociación “Nina Shunku” that proposes a new milestone in the construction of cultural policies. This proposal develops strategies that execute public policies of recognition and promotion of community cultural processes that, according to the Culture Law in Art. 4, recognizes Community Living Culture (CVC) as a principle that conceives artistic and cultural expressions of communes and peoples that emerge from everyday life. And Art. 122 demands the articulation of Decentralized Autonomous Governments (GAD) with community cultural organizations. In this third edition, the PDGCC starts from initiatives of self-management and autonomy that generate sustainability in projects such as logistical and communicational support to achieve effective cooperation, visibility, and articulation of collaborative work of cultural processes.
