Just as a point of information DC does define an audience term:

   http://www.dublincore.org/documents/dcmi-terms/#audience

Actually there are currently several newer terms that have been
officially adopted by DC that perhaps should be added to CQL DC Context
Set, or maybe a new Extended DC Context Set.

Since I'm here I might as well weigh in on the proliferation of new
terms with the same meaning as existing terms:  Please avoid it where
ever possible and reuse existing index terms.

Kind regards,
