Culture and sustainable development: examples of institutional innovation and proposal of a new cultural policy profile

The report Culture and sustainable development: examples of institutional innovation and proposal of a new cultural policy profile was produced by Jordi Pascual, commissioned by the UNESCO Division of Cultural Policies and Intercultural Dialogue, in the framework of the process "Towards a new cultural policy profile". It was carried out with the support of the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation (AECID).

This study analyses the relation between culture and sustainable development, and highlights how cities and local governments are incorporating culture into the core of their urban policies; the report also describes some examples of institutional innovation, with some emphasis on cultural diversity and intercultural dialogue.
