Managing cultural infrastructure
Does your organisation have its own infrastructure? Then there are several things you need to pay attention to.
- Workplace regulations
The ARAB regulations are the General Occupational Health and Safety Regulations that ensure the proper execution of work and the protection of employees.
- Sustainable infrastructure
The government and the cultural sector itself encourage organisations to pursue sustainable infrastructure. Several tools were developed for this purpose:
You will find a questionnaire that analyses your building(s) for sustainability at Cultuurzaam.be. You’ll learn to identify a number of points of attention and discover opportunities for improvement.
EnergyID is a measurement tool to monitor your energy consumption on a platform shared with various partners.
- Accessibility
The online “Handbook on Accessibility of Public Buildings” [Handboek Toegankelijkheid Publieke Gebouwen] provides a checklist of minimum accessibility requirements for organisations planning a construction project and also offers recommendations for accessibility.
The guidelines of Inter (the Flemish Centre of Expertise for Accessibility and Universal Design) for accessibility of cultural centres and arts organisations.
