For this axis, the research in the creative economy recognizes the importance of cultural and geographic diversity in economic and social development. It explores the specific dynamics of creative industries in regions, highlighting local resources, cultural traditions and community initiatives. The axis focusses on the creative spirit of individuals who often have to deal with more limited resources. It also aims to strengthen regional cultural ecosystems, foster social inclusion and promote local talent at provincial, national and international levels.
