Why Invest in Arts, Culture and Heritage?

Arts-CultureHappily just finished the literature review for my current research project: Measuring the return on investment in arts culture and heritage. Quite amazing how much great work there has been done in this area of research and practice, around the world. Quite amazing how policy makers of all shapes sizes and colours can’t grasp how significant investment in arts, culture and heritage can be for our development, well being and prosperity. On so many levels. Really excited about the next phase of this work.
