About WWMC

Association Worldwide Music Conference (WWMC) is a non-profit organisation dedicated to the future of music, in all its aspects and diversity.

WWMC brings together people committed to music — musicians, researchers, cultural and philanthropic leaders, as well as institutions — around music's defining questions and challenges.

Through conferences, advocacy, research, and other activities, WWMC advances music's recognition at the international and institutional levels, facilitates the preservation and transmission of musical heritage and knowledge, and fosters new discoveries and musical innovation.
