Resources, their availability and regional dispersion are shaping strategic relations in the international community. The effective management of strategic resources maintains stability, reduces security risks and contributes to improving living standards, whereas uneven and unjust distribution lead to inequality and the concentration of resources in centres of power.
Under the title ‘(Re)sources of (In)stability’, the 14th Bled Strategic Forum, took place between 31 August and 3 September 2019 in Ljubljana/Bled, Slovenia, and was dedicated to discussing the role of (re)sources regarding peace and security, sustainable development and economic progress.

Creativity is recognized as a driving force for development – socially, culturally, economically, environmentally and even politically. Its potential, however, is still greatly untapped, the disconnect between policy makers and creative communities being one of the principal reasons.
To unlock the cultural and creative sector’s potential for regional development, Slovenian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Union for the Mediterranean launched Creative Forum Ljubljana in 2018. With its focus on the Southern Mediterranean and the Western Balkans, it brings together policy makers and creative communities from twenty countries: Albania, Algeria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Kosovo, Lebanon, Libya, Mauritania, Montenegro, Morocco, North Macedonia, Palestine, Serbia, Slovenia, Syria, Tunisia and Turkey.
While its first edition in April 2018 reviewed the regional state of play of the cultural and creative sector, this year’s Forum will set the ground for collective action. Under the title “Creative Capital United”, it is an invitation to unite our forces – regionally and sectorially, from education to the economy and policy making.
Creative Forum Ljubljana is the only platform that links the Southern Mediterranean and the Western Balkans through creativity. It provides capacity building, networking opportunities, room for debate and policy review. It is an advocate and a catalyst of a policy change that creates a region-wide enabling environment for the cultural and creative sector.
