New Voices in Cultural Policies” is a publication that includes 10 articles on topics related to cultural policies in the Arab region between 2019 and 2022, within 4 chapters that address issues of legislations, funding, rights, and digitization. It presents a survey on policies, practices, and diverse experiences of cultural work in several countries in the Arab region namely Egypt, Algeria, Libya,
