AI-NURECC PLUS Conference: Creative and Cultural Industries in the Adriatic-Ionian Region

Online | 1 December 2021

Forum AIC, UniAdrion and FAIC, partners of the Adriatic Ionian Network of Universities, Regions, Chambers of Commerce and Cities PLUS (AI-NURECC PLUS initiative), are organizing the AI-NURECC PLUS Conference “Creative and Cultural Industries in the Adriatic-Ionian Region” on 1/12/2021.

The aim of this conference is to contextualise and start mapping the variety of Creative and Cultural Industries (CCIs) existing in the Adriatic and Ionian region. We will consider the different kinds of social and economic benefits they can produce, distinguishing between three functional configurations. The first concerns the educational value of the cultural sector, mainly linked to the realm of public spending for conservation and fruition. The second refers to the economic function of cultural and creative industries, where CCIs are considered for their capacity to generate wealth and income. The third one looks at the economic and physical regeneration that CCIs can play in the process of economic de-industrialization that is affecting urban systems. Ultimately, we will discuss the centrality of culture in generating positive change, transformation and creative impulses in individual behaviour. Its capacity to unlock frozen behaviours and generate new ideas for facing the complex challenges of our time. By inviting scholars and practitioners in the field, we aim to systematize and understand the potential of CCIs for the Adriatic and Ionian region.
