The Think -Thank Meeting was organised within framework of activities between EUCLID and the Northern Ireland Centre for European Co-operation (NICEC) at the University of Ulster at Magee. The NICEC programme of activities under the theme &#8220 ; Shared Learning from the Local to the Global&#8221 ; was funded by the EU Peace II Programme through the Office of First Minister and Deputy First Minister. NICEC has been facilitating a team of politicians and policy makers, practitioners (including representatives from NGOs) and analysts and researchers to participate in a number of activities which aim to support cultural developments in Northern Ireland. One possible outcome of this programme is the establishment of a Cultural Observatory in Northern Ireland. The Think Tank meeting was a chance to hear from existing cultural observatories in Europe and to discuss some of the issues and options that Northern Ireland would need to consider in establishing such an entity.
