Cultural Vitality: A discussion of national cultural indicators
2025-07-01 10:00 - 12:00 UTC | Online
Join us for the national launch of the Cultural Indicator Suite.
Cultural vitality is a central part of understanding the cultural and artistic health of places. It involves dynamic interactions between cultural activities and participation, diversity, access and infrastructure, which collectively shape the identity and well-being of communities.
The Cultural Indicator Suite project, undertaken by the Centre for Cultural Value and The Audience Agency, supported by Research England, aims to develop a framework for measuring cultural vitality. By reviewing existing national approaches to data collection, the project seeks to better capture and communicate the everyday cultural vitality of communities.
At this event, we will discuss the project to date, share the framework of suggested indicators, and invite discussion and questions.
Speakers and programme to be announced soon.
Who would find this event valuable?
Policymakers and cultural sector leaders from across the UK who are interested in how everyday culture and cultural vitality might be measured and reported to support policy, placemaking, and funding initiatives.
