Building on earlier discourse, the current yearbook volume continues to
focus on questions of research in the field of cultural and arts
education from a global perspective. This year's volume opens with a
review of important contributions to the World Summit in Arts Education
held in Wildbad Kreuth, Germany in 2013. It continues with the topics of
evaluation, mapping and monitoring introduced in the first volume.
Theoretical and practical applications of the key foundations of work in
the International Network for Research in Arts Education (INRAE) are
also explored at length. Most notably, new approaches aimed at linking
arts education to peace education and the application of these
approaches to education for sustainable development (ESD) are introduced
and explored.
