Interconnections between Culture and Sustainability

Zusatztext

Culture is the essential fourth pillar of sustainability. This book reveals why that matters and how to measure it in a changing world. Progressing from a critique of failing impact metrics in the UK to innovative solutions for retail, exhibition, and heritage spaces, it argues for a holistic approach integrating cultural, social, economic, and environmental dimensions. Beyond simple economics, it offers new methodologies for assessing cultural impact. A vital resource for researchers studying cultural policy and an essential toolkit for creatives seeking to secure funding and demonstrate the true value of their work.
