Cultural Districts and Innovation: a Focus on the Global South
Publications
This report, commissioned by the Global Cultural Districts Network (GCDN) and written by Tarek Virani, looks at “how cultural districts in the Global South are either innovating or creating the conditions to meet the needs of new and existing challenges”. As such, it provides a fresh perspective on what the challenges of our time might mean for cultural districts worldwide balancing the push and pull of globalisation and localism. Ultimately, our understanding of how innovation in cultural districts occurs in the Global South reinforces what we know about cultural districts generally – as much as this is a global phenomenon, the local context always determines the shape and impact of any effort.

IN SEARCH OF: The Social Impact of Cultural Districts – Emerging Principles for Social Impact Evaluation
Publications
Across the globe, the transformative powers of cultural districts have been widely noted, particularly with respect to how they add value to the lives of individuals and to society as a whole. Yet the ways in which cultural districts deliver and evaluate their social impact have yet to be fully explored. Importantly, there is a stark absence of rigorous methodologies and assessment frameworks to assist cultural districts in articulating, planning, delivering, and evaluating their social value proposition. Based on findings from a follow-up study to our 2019 report on Social Impact, untimely terminated due to Covid-19, this publication highlights there is much to be learned about the social impact of cultural districts.
