Will the National Campaign for the Arts consider working alongside the Department and the Arts Council on putting in place an upskilling programme? A number of musicians have a global appeal but do not have the skills to leverage it. Some have done it expertly and I am thinking of friends of mine such as We Banjo 3, who have done extraordinary work online. They are masters at using their talent and skills to propagate their music throughout the world. This could be replicated in so many other forms. Perhaps there could be a webinar every now and again on telling people what platforms are available, how to use them and how to avail of them. That would be helpful.
