Abstract
Exploring the relationship between art and human rights comes from the need for a new educational language able to make every individual reach the full flowering of his dignity. It is a philosophical idea that finds in the juridical paradigm of human rights the necessary justification to propose a value-oriented investment in cultural and educational policies at the local, national and international level. The human right to art expresses its educational potential also in the European dimension: it gives a «supplement of soul» to the Europe 2020 Strategy and puts the promotion of the creative intelligence at the centre of the thematic objectives of the Cohesion Policy 2014-2020. The concrete result of the analysis is the proposal of an action plan for the constitution of an «immaterial» European Grouping of Territorial Cooperation (EGTC). Starting from the experience of the INTERREG IVC Project CREA.RE, a possible «EGTC on art and human rights» is recognised as the appropriate territorial answer to the challenge of human rights education and to the need for «transcend civic identity».
