The EU ministers of culture came together in Berlin for a meeting hosted by Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media, Minister of State Monika Grütters. The working meeting primarily focused on how to deal with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on culture in EU member states.

In spite of the COVID-19 pandemic, many of Grütters’ European counterparts made their way to the Federal Chancellery in person. The main purpose of the meeting was to examine the challenges posed by the pandemic for the entire cultural sector across Europe.
