Culture: A Tool For Reversing Recession

Author: Timothée Guicherd - Date: 30 jun 2009, 11:34

This paper sets out ten arguments that Ministers of Culture can use during annual budgetary discussions with their ministerial colleagues to highlight the vital role of culture.

Published by Council of Europe's Culture Watch Europe, it suggests reasons why cultural investment can be an important tool to combat the effects of recession and to lead the way back to prosperity. From boosting confidence to attracting mobility, the arguments are as relevant at the intergovernmental, regional and local levels as they are at the national level.
