4.1i What cultural and heritage assets/infrastructure need to be in place when new housing is developed?
Background
DCMS is keen to enhance its understanding on how to ensure policies are targeted, tailored and effective in the places that need them most. The department is interested in the drivers of economic growth in different places, how cultural and heritage investment can affect socio-economic outcomes in these places and what are the most important prerequisite conditions for effective cultural investment. We seek research on the role and drivers of cultural sectors in creating and delivering community services, and what programmes or approaches are the most effective in delivering an increase in social cohesion, community attachment and belonging. Furthermore, DCMS is interested in the specific place-based factors that enable a successful commercial art market. DCMS also welcomes research offering international comparative analysis for all of these themes.
