Objective/scope of the committee

The Committee for the Cultural Utilisation of Space (ITACCUS) seeks to promote and facilitate the innovative utilisation of space (data, systems, applications) by organisations in the cultural sectors of society internationally, including all areas of the arts and humanities, including the fine arts, entertainment, popular culture and tourism.

In a cultural context, it may include cultural production, cultural preservation, cultural representation, cultural education and cultural development.

ITACCUS’ activities comprise:

  • Advocacy – promoting, developing and raising the profile and quality of ‘cultural utilisation of space’ within the space community and within the cultural community internationally, and with the general public
  • Collaboration – organising meetings and workshops internationally.
  • Communication & Dialogue
  • Knowledge Hub
  • Promoting Quality Cultural Products
