Cultural Immersion and Production. The Meaning of Musicking for Social Trust and Inclusion

The project investigates how engagement in music activities in ethnic-based associations may influence social inclusion and empower citizenship among its members. We explore and discuss 1) the results from our research on eth-nic associations in Sweden, and 2) the ideas be-hind the cultural and integration policies in Sweden, launched in the 1970s which has gradu-ally changed during the decades due to current discourses and societal changes.
