The British Council supports the building of a vibrant and entrepreneurial arts scene with the space for creative and transformative ideas to develop and find an audience. Through our Culture Connects programme, we facilitate international connections between arts organisations and cultural leaders, enabling them to produce and share new work, and expand their networks through UK and Egypt delegations.
Our programme partners with Egyptian festivals to showcase UK work and exchange knowledge, supports collaborations between Egyptian and UK organisations to create new art, and safeguards cultural heritage at risk through the Cultural Protection Fund.
As a champion of the UK and global creative economies, the British Council strengthens connections and builds trust worldwide. We share our expertise and networks with creative professionals and policymakers, helping drive sustainable, inclusive futures. Our focus is on policy, research, advocacy, and capacity building, highlighting the global creative economy as a key driver of inclusive growth.
