Broad shoulders to bear more
The Faroese Social Democratic Party has announced its campaign slogan for the upcoming parliamentary elections: “All should benefit.” The party proposes that a larger portion of society should share the responsibility of supporting the cultural sector.
The party argues that the current system places too much burden on a small group of individuals and institutions. “We believe that culture is a shared responsibility,” said a party spokesperson. “It is not fair that only a few bear the costs while everyone enjoys the benefits.”
The proposal includes measures to distribute the financial responsibility more evenly across different sectors of society. The party also plans to increase public funding for cultural projects and initiatives.
