Certain target groups have particular difficulties of access in the current cultural framework. It is therefore a particular aim of the cultural policy of the City of Linz to develop new concepts and to offer a new range of activities for these population groups.

Intensifying work with children and young people is of decisive importance for the future. We hope to exploit the potential of Kuddelmuddel, the current children's culture centre, by re-thinking its concept and extending its scope.
All cultural institutions should strive for closer co-operation with schools and kindergartens, and also with institutes of further education, within the framework of target group orientatio

The proportion of retired people in the total population will rapidly increase in the coming decades. The concept of the "youthful oldie" (higher age limits, cultural ambitions even in old age, increased mobility etc.) must be taken into consideration in the range of the city's cultural activities.

The cultural institutions should carry out analyses of changes in the habits and requirements of the (potential) public. Plans to promote contacts with target groups should then be developed by the individual institutions on the basis of these results, special emphasis being placed on integration and co-operation between the individual cultural institutions.
