Several studies have addressed the challenges faced by cultural and creative professionals and businesses since the emergence of the global COVID-19 pandemic. Some success stories have surfaced around larger organizations that managed to adapt quickly because they had been preparing for the digital era. The focus of the study presented here adds the much-needed viewpoint of those individuals who form the target audiences and are vital for the future of any CCI organization. These are the results of a public survey aimed at informing directly cultural organizations that experiment with new creative approaches and are adjusting to the transformations that have taken place. Findings are vital for organizations from smaller cultural markets while key conclusions shed light on the new disposition of the public towards existing and future formats of cultural offers online that are valid for contemporary audiences in general. These cover several key observations regarding the most popular type of cultural content and events online; the engagement rate of different audience groups; the most preferred duration of culture in video format; gender affinities influencing the engagement with cultural content online; the motivations and barriers for attending cultural events online, ways to keep the audiences informed, and finally, which new forms of cultural and creative offers would the public be willing to attend online in the recent future. The article demonstrates that knowing the target audience and using data analytics on public dispositions while creating new content can empower CCI organizations. This claim is also based on the successful experience of pilot offers created by CCIs that have benefited directly from the research results of Intercultura Consult’s 2021 project. Work continues in a new project empowering cultural organizations to incubate experimental offers (digital dimension including). The goal is to enhance their connection with key audiences.

This paper explores the role of knowledge visualization in facilitating decision-making in cultural heritage management. The paper addresses the issue in the specific context of stećci - the tombstones from medieval Bosnia inscribed on the UNESCO world heritage list. Grounded in the distant reading paradigm, the paper introduces a series of visualizations of spatial, temporal, architectural, iconographical, epigraphical, and impact analyses of stećci data. Together, these visualizations should enable decision-makers to gain an enhanced understanding and knowledge of this important cultural heritage. In turn, this should help them make better decisions regarding their protection and promotion.

This article presents an economic analysis of the behavior of the creative economy of three countries: the United Kingdom (UK), the Republic of Korea (South Korea), and Mexico. The experience and the actions implemented by the first two countries are useful to suggest the implementation of public policies for Mexico. As is well known, the creative economic sector contributes to economic development and generates wealth for the nations. The activities included in this type of economy may vary from country to country since theorists, organizations, and governments use different approaches and there are current discussions regarding what activities to include in this sector. The question is why developed economies are most worried about this kind of topic and the developing countries not so much, despite that in the future both kinds of economies will face problems from technological unemployment. Since the beginning of this century, the UK and South Korea have implemented practices regarding creative economies. For example, these regions have created specialized organizations to foster creative economic sectors with the perspective of technological development and by offering them financial support. In 2013, South Korea created a program to support creative and cultural industries, particularly oriented to the international market; the program was coordinated by the Ministry of Science, ICT, and Future Planning (MSIP). On the other hand, the government of Mexico has not implemented integral policies to assist or encourage creative sectors, where most of the support towards these sectors has come from private organizations and individual initiatives. The purpose of this article is to use the experiences of the UK and South Korea to suggest ideas and learning mechanisms that can be adopted by Mexico to implement practices, programs, and public policies to improve its creative sector.

Can intellectual property and marketing strategies help bearer communities to make a sustainable living from their intangible heritage? This is the question that underpinned a British Academy-funded interdisciplinary research project that comprised researchers from the UK, France, and Italy, and an NGO from Kolkata. This contribution describes the development and implementation of heritage-sensitive intellectual property and marketing strategies (HIPAMS) with two communities in West Bengal – Chau dancers and Chau mask-makers who were at the heart of the project. Using methods including forum theatre and walking stories, the research team and the communities’ highlighted challenges faced by the communities in making a sustainable living from their heritage skills and developed ways in which HIPAMS could be used by the communities to their advantage while retaining a focus on the importance of the heritage. The initial evaluation shows how significant these strategies can be for heritage communities, however small and incremental the advances made.
