This report presents the findings of a review of the SDC Regional Art and Culture Programme in Central Asia (RACP). It focuses on Phase III of the programme (2012-16) and was conducted by François Matarasso and Alice Thomann between February and March 2015. Its findings are based on a review of programme documents and a two week field trip to meet partners and stakeholders in Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan (2-16 March 2015). The rationale of RACP is clear and realistic: it aims to support arts and culture actors in creating work that protects a space for democratic discourse, free expression, respect for cultural diversity and human rights. These values are not necessarily explicit: art should not be a form of propaganda. Rather they are enacted in concerts, festivals, publications, master classes, schools programmes, exhibitions and other activities in which civil society, democracy, tolerance and human values are nurtured and celebrated.
