In Colombia, discussions on the culture budget bring with them the stigma of a sector considered as 'the Cinderella' of national public spending. However, the empirical evidence of this study shows that, at the territorial level, the great challenge in the allocation and execution of resources is to achieve efficiency and effectiveness. The results obtained highlight the importance of increasing the percentage of execution, reducing budgetary lags and analyzing the demographic, geographic, socioeconomic, development or quality of life characteristics of municipalities, in order to make an equitable distribution and execution of resources that guarantee the cultural rights contemplated in the Political Charter; in this sense, it is proposed to design instruments of territorial cultural public policies, through the creation of master and development plans, a cultural public agenda and evaluation and monitoring mechanisms that allow evaluating the impact of the invested resources. It also proposes the need to configure a theoretical-practical platform within the cultural institutional framework to support decision-makers in identifying and addressing the problems of the sector.
