description |
Culture and creativity have untapped potential
to deliver social, economic, and spatial benefits
for cities and communities. Cultural and creative
industries are key drivers of the creative economy
and represent important sources of employment,
economic growth, and innovation, thus contributing
to city competitiveness and sustainability. Through
their contribution to urban regeneration and
sustainable urban development, cultural and
creative industries make cities more attractive
places for people to live in and for economic activity
to develop. Culture and creativity also contribute to
social cohesion at the neighborhood level, enable
creative networks to form and advance innovation
and growth, and create opportunities for those
who are often socially and economically excluded. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has had a
deep impact on the cultural sector, yet it has
also revealed the power of cultural and creative
industries as a resource for city recovery and
resilience. More generally, cities are hubs of the
creative economy and have a critical role to play in
harnessing the transformative potential of cultural
and creative industries through policies and
enabling environments at the local level. ‘Cities, Culture, and Creativity’ (CCC)
provides guiding principles and a CCC
Framework, developed by UNESCO and the
World Bank, to support cities in unlocking
the power of cultural and creative industries
for sustainable urban development, city
competitiveness, and social inclusion. Drawing
from global studies and the experiences of nine
diverse cities from across the world, the CCC
Framework offers concrete guidance for the range
of actors — city, state, and national governments;
creative industry and related private-sector
organizations; creatives; culture professionals and
civil society— to harness culture and creativity with
a view to boosting their local creative economies
and building resilient, inclusive, and dynamic cities. |
