Worldwide Strategy from the Global Creative Economy Council
Global Creative Economy Council Unveils the Global Agenda at World Conference in Dubai
In a groundbreaking move, the Global Creative Economy Council has unveiled the Global Agenda, a comprehensive plan designed to bolster the international creative industries and foster collaboration between governments. The Agenda, which is the culmination of a two-year coordinated discussion spanning more than 18 countries, is being launched at the World Conference on Creative Economy held in Dubai.
The Global Agenda sets out 11 key actions for international creative industries and governments, aiming to support policymakers by identifying actionable recommendations based on research and industry insights. While the exact 11 key actions are not explicitly detailed in the accessible documents, it is known that they focus on cross-cutting issues such as internationalisation, skills, investment, and policy alignment in the creative and cultural sectors.
The Global Agenda report is available in various languages, including English, Hindi, German, Kazakh, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Indonesian, Bangla, Arabic, Georgian, Portuguese, French, and Turkish. However, it is not available for download, unlike the report. The size of the download is approximately 860.322 KB.
The Global Agenda was written by the Global Creative Economy Council's predecessor, the PEC International Council. It is also a contribution to the United Nations 2021 International Year of Creative Economy for Sustainable Development and was created in response to an invitation from the UN General Assembly. The report was written in partnership with the British Council and is funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council.
This marks the first time an international group representing the global creative industries has come together with these goals in mind. For those interested in accessing the specific list of actions outlined in the Global Agenda, it is recommended to consult the report directly on the Creative PEC website or contact Creative PEC for the authoritative list of actions.
The Global Agenda is a significant step forward in the global effort to strengthen the creative industries and promote sustainable development. As the world continues to evolve, it is crucial for creative industries to adapt and grow, and the Global Agenda provides a roadmap for achieving this goal.
