RESULTS

The arts have unique power to shift mindsets, inspire collective action, and foster empathy.

 

Creative ecosystems (artists, cultural institutions, communities, funders, policymakers) can drive systemic change when interconnected.

 

Social, environmental, and economic impact is best achieved through cross-sector collaboration between arts and other fields such as education, sustainability, technology, and policy.

 

Investment in the arts must be inclusive and globally accessible, not confined to elite or privileged spaces.
