Cultural, educational and community partners
to activate proximity-based infrastructure

TRAMA BCN is built with cultural institutions, civic centers, libraries, foundations, universities, companies and community organizations seeking to contribute to a more plural, documented and cohesive Barcelona.

Collaboration framework

A network designed to combine complementary capacities.

TRAMA BCN does not present partners as a closed list or as confirmed collaborations without a public agreement. This page defines the type of institutional, cultural, educational and community relationships the program needs to turn art, mediation and documentation into territorial capacity.

Partners

Who can form part of the network.

Each partner contributes a different capacity: access, territorial knowledge, mediation, education, funding, cultural legitimacy or institutional support.

01 — Cultural ecosystem

Cultural institutions and galleries

They may contribute professional criteria, artist connections, curatorial support, artwork loans or presentation spaces when a specific agreement exists.

02 — Civic infrastructure

Civic centers and libraries

They function as proximity spaces, public access points and relationship channels with diverse communities across the city.

03 — Education

Schools, universities and educational programs

They may activate civic learning, educational mediation, applied research, internships, learning materials and community documentation.

04 — Territory

Neighborhood and community organizations

They contribute situated knowledge, territorial trust and the capacity to connect the program with local needs, memories and publics.

05 — Institutional

Foundations and public bodies

They may contribute to coordination, local articulation, traceability and the sustainability of program lines.

06 — Private support

Companies and CSR / ESG teams

They may support culture, education, social cohesion and community documentation with clear objectives and prudent fiscal language.

Criteria

How we understand a responsible partnership.

Clarity

Each collaboration should define objectives, roles, scope, timeline and follow-up channels.

Territorial relevance

The relationship should respond to Barcelona’s context and avoid turning communities into communication material.

Education and public return

Partnerships should enable learning, mediation, documentation and public reporting when the program enters activity.

Traceability

Contributions, activities and outcomes should only be communicated when verifiable evidence exists.

Process

How to start a conversation.

Institutions, cultural spaces, educational teams, foundations, companies and community organizations can write to explore a collaboration adapted to their context.

1. Initial contact

Presentation of the institution, territory of interest and potential fit.

2. Relevance review

Joint assessment of capacities, objectives and compatible lines of work.

3. Working framework

Definition of possible activities, responsibilities, indicators and communication.

4. Formalization

When appropriate, documentation of the agreement before any collaboration is published as confirmed.
