The Higher Education Sector in the Arts, Music, and Dance (AFAM) is distinct from both the university system and other areas of public administration, due to its specific characteristics and missions.
This uniqueness requires the adoption of a dedicated approach to performance evaluation, one that respects the artistic and educational particularities of these institutions.

Although ANVUR has initiated various preliminary analytical activities, the implementation of the regulatory provisions for AFAM institutions has not yet been completed. Nevertheless, the Agency continues to work towards developing an evaluation system consistent with the specific features of the AFAM sector, in order to ensure that administrative and educational processes fully contribute to the enhancement of the country’s cultural and creative heritage.
