The European Commission releases the first ever edition of the Cultural and Creative Cities Monitor to support urban policies and investments
This year, the European Union celebrates the tenth anniversary since the adoption of the first ‘European Agenda for Culture in a Globalising World’ (2007). Since then, the cultural and the creative sectors have taken an increasingly prominent place in European Union policymaking as a key driver of growth and job creation, enhancing creativity and innovation as well as fostering a sense of belonging and cohesion among citizens.
However, mapping cultural and creative assets and measuring their impact in a systematic and comparable way across Europe remains a challenge, with no shared definitions or metrics, particularly at city level.
The Cultural and Creative Cities Monitor provides a reliable common evidence base designed to help national, regional and municipal policy makers identify local strengths and opportunities, to promote mutual exchange and learning between cities and to inspire fit-for-purpose policies to boost economic development and strengthen resilience.
