This article examines the impact of the development of the digital age on culture and education, two directly related social spheres that have seen the emergence of several social and digital divisions. Not everybody is able to access and enjoy online culture, so promoting appropriate training in the use of the tools needed in a digital society is indispensable. On the basis of a review of literature on the subject by leading researchers in the areas of culture and education, we conclude that the enjoyment of digital culture entails a radical change of perspective, which doubtless involves adapting the current education system.

Uno de ellos lo constituyen los espacios en los cuales el joven invierte su tiempo de ocio, cuya tipología varía dependiendo del grado de autonomía, participación y uso de los mismos, coexistiendo una gradación de espacios que van del polo de la monitorización, hasta el polo de la autogestión.

They are mainly information brokers and focus on facilitating the transfer of knowledge between researchers/academics, cultural workers and cultural policymakers. It is often suggested, though, that this goal is hampered by a lack of understanding between researchers/academics and the users of research results. To gather opinions on this question, a quick poll was carried out for this issue of Cultural Policy Update among professionals in the cultural sector in Europe. Barriers are mentioned, proposals and suggestions are made, both by researchers and the users of research findings like cultural managers and public policymakers, to improve the most relevant function of cultural observatories: the transference of knowledge.

Cultural mapping gives us a new understanding of the historical processes that have transformed public spaces in cities whose productive models and social relationships have undergone critical changes, affecting how they project their identity inside and outside their boundaries. Our research focuses on the case study of Bilbao (Basque Country, Spain). The first part of the analysis centres on a critical interpretation of the importance granted to cultural infrastructures in areas that were most intensely exposed to the changes which are known as the ‘Guggenheim
effect’ on the international scene. This study especially examines the tension between today’s transformations and managing memories from the past. The second part analyses cultural mapping practices developed in emerging areas of the city such as the Zorrotzaurre peninsula, which is the new focus of the metropolitan development scheme. The proposals chosen for this study foster democratic responsibility in city management by using new technologies. They enable us take a closer look at some of the city’s most innovative collaborative cultural mapping practices, methodology and processes, as well as the theoretical frameworks that inspired them. Lastly, a proposal is put forth to implement participatory cultural mapping to identify the spillover effects of the cultural and creative industries located in renewed urban
spaces.

The article begins with an approach to culture as valuable leisure experience and overviews the main features of the cultural experience from the point of view of Leisure Studies. Next, it approaches the reality of audience development, trying to apply in that certain area of management the theoretical concepts identified before.
Finally, it concludes with a series of reflections oriented to the implementation of this new approach.
