Digital initiatives for the culture sector

Enhancing access to cultural offerings

Arts & Heritage

Increased digitalisation will transform how audiences engage with the arts and culture. Apart from working with technology partners to enhance experiences at cultural institutions, a Cultural Concierge will deliver arts and culture content via a dedicated portal, and a Cultural Resource Ontology powered by Artificial Intelligence will also be developed, allowing citizens to discover and research our rich cultural and heritage content.

SG Youth Action Plan

Working together to realise a youth vision for Singapore

Youth

MCCY will engage and partner Singapore youths to move from conversation to action, with the development of an SG Youth Action Plan. Youths will get the opportunity to crystallise their vision for Singapore and identify areas to co-develop and co-deliver solutions amongst themselves with society and government to achieve this vision through the Plan.

International conference on cohesive societies

Rallying communities to foster social cohesion and interfaith harmony

Community, Youth

In June 2019, thought-leaders, practitioners and policy-makers from around the world will gather in Singapore to share experiences, exchange ideas and develop collaborations for building cohesive societies. The Conference also serves to rally all communities to commit to fostering social cohesion. In conjunction, a Young Leaders’ Programme will be held to connect youth leaders and equip them to play a more active role in community building.

Sports

Sport Singapore engaged over 1,500 people through over 60 engagement sessions as part of the review of Vision 2030, the national blueprint for sport. A report of the recommendations and upcoming initiatives will be published later this year.

One recommendation that is being developed is the SportCares’ Communities of Care initiative – which aims to establish a network of partners to catalyse more ground-up initiatives that use sport for social good.

Active Health

Sports

A national social movement introduced in 2017 to spur Singaporeans to take ownership of their health and wellbeing, Active Health has made great strides since its initiation. By the end of this year, there will be six Active Health Labs in operation across Singapore, two more Sport-in-Precinct (SIP) programmes and an additional space housed at a partner facility to be launched at Admiralty Medical Centre.

Sports Facilities Master Plan

New and improved sporting spaces under Sports Facilities Master Plan

Sports

Sports facilities in towns across Singapore are being rejuvenated with new and innovative features; and designed to align with each town’s identity, heritage and overall liveability plans, to create common spaces where citizens can get together to play sport, socialise and forge meaningful relationships. Residents of Jurong Town, Yan Kit, Bukit Batok and Taman Jurong can also look forward to new facilities.

Disability Sports Master Plan

More opportunities for persons with disabilities to take part in sport through the Disability Sports Master Plan

Persons with disabilities will have more opportunities to take part in shared sporting experiences with the expansion of Singapore’s largest unified sport competition Play Inclusive. The Play-Ability recreational sports programme will also reach out to more homes and day activity centres that serve people with disabilities. SportSG will also develop capabilities in disability sports among teachers and staff.

ActiveSG Academies and Clubs
