The Secretariat of Culture (Spanish: Secretaría de Cultura, formerly Ministry of Culture) of Argentina is a ministry of the national executive power that oversaw the government's public policy on the culture of Argentina.
The culture portfolio was first established in 1973 during the presidency of Héctor Cámpora as part of the responsibilities of the Ministry of Culture and Education;[1] the first minister responsible was Jorge Taiana. The ministry existed only briefly before being demoted to a Secretariat. It would remain under the scope of the broader Ministry of Education until 2014, when it was re-established by President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner.[citation needed]
After president Javier Milei dissolved the Ministry of Culture in December 2023, it turned into a secretariat.[5]
