Impacts 08 – The Liverpool Model, is a joint research initiative of the University of Liverpool and Liverpool John Moores University, which evaluates the social, cultural, economic and environmental effects of Liverpool’s hosting of the European Capital of Culture title in 2008. The research programme, commissioned by Liverpool City Council, examines the progress and impact of this experience on the city and its people.
The aim of Impacts 08 is to develop a research model for evaluating the multiple impacts of culture-led regeneration programmes that can be applied to events across the UK and beyond. An obvious example is the London 2012 Olympic Games, which will also incorporate a four-year cultural programme (cultural Olympiad) starting in 2008. Future European Capitals of Culture, such as Essen and the Ruhr area, Istanbul and Pecs in 2010, should also benefit from and build on this research. Liverpool City Council has commissioned the two universities to develop Impacts 08 in partnership with the Cultural Research Steering Group - made up of Liverpool City Council, Liverpool Culture Company and representatives from Culture Northwest, the regional cultural consortium, including Arts Council England (North West) and the North West Culture Observatory.
