David Khoudour presented at the 2015 Global Forum on Remittances and Development in Milan, Italy. He discussed how public policies can create an enabling environment for using remittances to finance development. Khoudour categorized public policies into migration policies, migration-related development policies, and non-migration sectoral development policies. Sectoral development policies in areas like financial services, agriculture, education, health, and social protection can influence remittance flows and investment by either complementing or substituting for remittances. Coordinating policies across sectors and integrating migration into development strategies can improve policy coherence and better leverage remittances for development.
Challenges Facing Sending Countries (China, India, the Philippines, and Thail...EURA-NET project
Sending countries face several challenges related to temporary migration. They have diverse migration histories and governance systems. While many were traditionally sending countries, some like China and India have also become destinations. Sending countries have varying levels of institutions and policies governing outward and inward migration. There are also unequal power dynamics between sending and destination countries. Sending countries aim to protect migrants at all stages of migration but often irregular migrants are penalized. They also seek to manage social costs and address root causes of migration while pursuing benefits for countries of origin, destination, and migrants themselves.

The Economic, Social and Cultural Impact of the City Arts and Culture ClusterCallum Lee
This report analyzes the economic, social, and cultural impact of arts and culture organizations located in the City of London. It finds that in 2011/12, these organizations generated £225 million for the City of London economy and supported over 6,700 jobs. Their economic impact comes from direct operations, spending in supply chains, and audience spending in other local businesses. They also provide significant social benefits through educational programs that engaged over 300,000 people, and over 1,100 volunteer opportunities. Surveys show that audiences feel the organizations offer high quality, innovative experiences and international artists not otherwise accessible. The report concludes that the arts cluster enhances the City's appeal and London's status as a global city.
Culture & The Economy: John O'Hagan: The arts and the wealth of nationsTBCT
This document outlines five potential wealth benefits of public funding for the arts: developing national/regional identity; promoting social cohesion and national prestige; supporting experimental and innovative work; preserving options for future generations; and generating economic spillovers. However, the document notes that some of these benefits may also apply to other activities like sports or religion. It argues that distinguishing private from public benefits and commercial arts from state-funded arts is important when considering the rationale for government arts funding.
We study art to understand creative human expression throughout history. Art provides insights into past cultures, including their gods, beliefs, and ways of life. It also reflects universal human themes that persist across different times and places. Art has value for its material, intrinsic artistic qualities, and ability to commemorate individuals and preserve cultural achievements. Societies often highly value the arts during periods seen as cultural heights.

Event: How arts and cultural activities are supporting co-production and innovation in public services, London, 19 May 2015, part of our Making Connections events series.
Between May 2015 and March 2016, we are running a series of regional events to bring together commissioners, arts and cultural providers, and others interested in increasing levels of cultural commissioning.
The Cultural Commissioning Programme works to help the arts and cultural sector engage in public sector commissioning and to enable public service commissioners to increase their awareness of the potential for arts and cultural organisations to deliver their outcomes. This three year programme, funded by Arts Council England, is being delivered through a partnership between NCVO (lead partner) , NEF and NPC .

Culture as a driver for leisure tourism - by Julie FossittJulie Fossitt
The document discusses using cultural products and assets to drive leisure tourism in Kingston, Canada. It outlines recommendations to create an environment where cultural tourism stakeholders can work together and develop a tourism strategy leveraging Kingston's culture and heritage. A pilot project was conducted surveying residents in surrounding cities about Kingston's culture and engaging digital influencers with a tour. Results showed low awareness of Kingston's cultural amenities but interest in visiting as an "arts hub." This informed the adoption of a unified branding approach across tourism partners with pillars of being authentically hip, culturally vibrant, and constantly evolving. Metrics showed engagement and reach increasing since implementing the new strategy.
Councils in the West of England Council want people's views on future plans for new homes and transport. This presentation by David Turner at the Bristol Planning and Law Conference provides an overview.

The Exeter Cultural Partnership represents the city’s cultural organisations including libraries, museums, sport, arts, health, education, food and retail - organisations which touch the lives of thousands of people each year. ECP now has over 150 members across the city and sub region.
Our mission as a partnership is to contribute to a city where a vibrant cultural life enriches the experience of everyone living in, working in and visiting Exeter.
For the past nine months ECP has been working towards the creation of a Cultural Action Plan for Exeter. With the support of Exeter City Council and the Arts Council of England, ECP has undertaken in depth consultation with the city’s cultural sector producing key findings that have informed this Action Plan.
Importantly this Action Plan is one that is ‘co-owned’ with the City Council, ensuring that culture is embedded in the plans that will shape the city of the future. Named as one of the top five priorities in the City Council’s five year strategic plan, culture is seen as a key contributor to future prosperity and growth in Exeter.
This document provides a summary of a report on developing a provincial cultural policy framework in British Columbia. It outlines the goals of the consultation process, which engaged nearly 600 people across 19 communities. The report recommends 6 goals for cultural policy: acknowledging culture's value; increasing access to resources; improving cultural education; stimulating social cohesion; improving investment models; and preserving Aboriginal culture. It argues a provincial cultural policy framework is needed to provide long-term guidance for the culture sector and coordinate support across government. The report was informed by extensive community and online consultations on the impacts and opportunities for culture in BC.

This document makes the holistic case for supporting arts and culture by providing examples of how it benefits culture, education, society, and the economy. It highlights arts organizations that preserve cultural heritage and provide access to the arts, as well as education programs that teach music, dance, and creative skills. Examples also show how the arts can help former prisoners develop skills and support well-being in healthcare settings. The document argues that arts and culture are not just for the elite but fuel the broader economy, and that cities' innovative potential lies in the creative union of technology, arts and civic life. It invites the reader to consider how these concepts interconnect and which policies should result.

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).
Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

13. Political environment: what we know
• Government
• A Conservative majority of 12
• Priorities: spending reductions, growth, constitutional
issues, city devolution, EU, Human Rights Act, etc.
• 2015/16 in-year cuts
• DCMS cut by 2.5% (£30m)
• Arts Council by 0.35%
• Budget announcements
• £17bn of savings announced
• Surplus delayed to 2019-20
• Spending Review
• £20bn still to be announced, including non-protected
Government departments
14. Spending Review: context
Government plans
•£37bn savings to be found
•£20bn to be set out in Spending Review
•Settlement likely for 2016/17 – 2019/20
Our approach
•Making the case for growth
•Wide-ranging scenario planning
•Consider GiA/Lottery balance
•Impact of cuts to LAs
Plan for the worst but be prepared for the best.
15. Spending Review: implications
16/17 – 17/18
•-5% - current NPO/MPM funding could be protected
•Impact on sector through loss of strategic funds
•Implications for museums and libraries
•-15% - loss of over £75m in 17/18
•Need for resilience and sustainability
18/19 and beyond
•Serious challenges from 18/19 and distribution at risk
•- 20% year on year would require radical changes
•Assumes consistent National Lottery funding
16. Timeline for 2018/19 to 2020/21 investment round
• Assuming we get a settlement of more than two year we will need to
set a timeline for the next investment process in autumn 2015.
• The optimal timeline would be something like.
• Budget setting and design of processes to be used – November 2015 to September 2016.
• Portal opens for NPO/MPM applications – 1st October to 31st December 2016.
• Access and decision making stage – 1st January to 31st March 2017.
• Negotiations of funding agreements and notice period for leavers and joiners – 2017/18
• New funding agreements signed by 31st March 2018.
• In the less likely scenario of only a two year settlement we would
probably wait until the next SR before setting an investment
timeline.

‘The arts matter in 2015 – make the case with us’
20. Spending review: engaging your MP
www.artscouncil.org.uk/toolkit
‘Engage your MP with the value of arts and culture’
21. Making the case: Local Authorities
• Largest funders of arts, libraries and regional museums
• Impact of SR cut to DCLG
• Arts Council cannot be ‘last funder in town’
• Using the Advocacy Toolkit
22. Making the case: in our area
Discussion
• What are the opportunities and priorities in your area?
• How can we work together to make the case for culture?
• Is there content or guidance the Arts Council could provide?
In December 2014, we announced a fundamental shift in our approach to diversity and published the Creative Case for Diversity to help achieve greater diversity in:
Programming – to ensure that people of all backgrounds can see work that resonates with them
Audiences – to achieve more diverse audiences
Supporting leadership – to support more diverse leadership as well as a more diverse workforce
Across the workforce – to see diversity as an opportunity to increase talent and resilience
Organisations in the National portfolio for 2015-18 have already signed up to the Creative Case for Diversity to help deliver these commitments. We have asked organisations for more robust data so we can see and demonstrate progress.
We are also using strategic funds, analysing Grants for the arts applications to ensure they’re increasingly diverse and making sure diversity features clearly in all our goals. As well as the dedicated £6m Creative Case fund, we have made diversity a priority in other strategic funding programmes, like Ambition for Excellence.
The Arts Council is committed to delivering a significant shift in how we distribute funding across the country. To achieve this ambition, we’re making changes to Grants for the arts and strategic funds:
For Grants for the arts, each Area will have its own budget, based on population, demand and our judgement as to what funding is appropriate. This approach will see the maximum amount deployed to London at 25%.
For Strategic Funds, each fund will have an approximate range for the proportion of funding to be invested outside London. We won’t set specific budgets across each area as we think that can limit ambition and opportunity. We’ll indicate the approximate levels of funding to be committed outside London to prospective applicants in guidance. Working to a range will give us flexibility when considering which grants to make.
Ambition for Excellence, a major £35million funding programme, will see at least £28million spent boosting production work outside London.
We’d like to see our Grant in aid investment reach more places across the country from 2017/18 onwards. However, any meaningful change is extremely difficult in the context of reduced Grant in aid budgets. We all need to make the best possible case for funding for arts and culture in the forthcoming Spending Review.
Every child and young person should have the chance to create, visit and participate in arts and culture, in and out of school. The Arts Council is working towards a cultural education guarantee – a commitment to making sure that arts and culture is an everyday part of every child’s life, no matter who they are or where they live – but we can’t guarantee anything alone.
At a national level we have relationships with Government – for example with the Department for Education, Ofsted and local government – to promote the value of a high quality provision in schools, including arts options at KS4.
Then we focus on some key ambitions, through national programmes like Artsmark, Arts Award, and our work with the Government’s Pupil Premium.
Then in every area there’s activity that is most effective if it’s led and delivered at local level. This includes NPOs and MPMs – 83% of whom have committed to work with children and young people – as well as Youth Music grants and the activities of partners like Film Clubs.
Finally, we work through other partners to encourage access and provision. For instance, our Bridge organisations connect and develop cultural education partnerships, and Music Education Hubs create joined up music provision in and outside school.
We’ll be talking more about these developments, and how you can be part of them, in the autumn.
The holistic case is central to the argument we will make to Government before the Spending Review:
Arts and culture is worth over £7bn to our economy. A significant return on a tiny investment of less than 0.1 percent of government spending. But the benefits go deeper and wider.
Culture plays a vital role in enriching the lives of the next generation through education and it yields benefits for society – for example, protecting our health and wellbeing.
As well as all these measurable benefits to our country, the arts and culture simply give us joy and meaning in our lives.
We can show how our work delivers the Government’s agenda:
Our theatres, galleries, libraries, museums and arts centres incubate talent and ideas for the wider creative industries – the fastest growing part of our economy
They enhance our reputation abroad and attract tourists. Over a quarter of London’s international visitors go to the theatre at least once.
They drive the regeneration of our former industrial regions and will be central to the Northern Powerhouse
They are a vital part of our children’s education. Creative subjects improve attainment in literacy, maths and languages and create the next generation of creative workers.
Culture makes people happier, while taking part in music or dance can improve physical and emotional health.
To make the best possible case to Government, we need everyone to talk about the value of arts and culture over the coming months. To help you to make the case, we have revised and improved the resources available to you:
We’ve refreshed the Advocacy Toolkit. You might already be familiar with this but it has been extensively reviewed. It now includes all the messages you’ll need around the new Parliament and specific ideas and practical advice for advocacy before the Spending Review.
We’ve produced new digital resources, including films you can share across your organisations, and are running campaigns online like #ACESupported to demonstrate the range and reach of publically funded arts.
We’re supporting new research, to provide the evidence you need to make the case, like the updated CEBR report on the economic impact of the arts and a new Create, which will look at the value of the arts in more depth.
We hope that all of these resources will help you with the three things we’re asking all of you to do on the run up to the Spending Review:
Create your own story about the value that your work brings
Communicate that story in every way you can
Build relationships with your local MP, local authority and other important decision makers.
Despite significant spending reductions, local authorities are still major funders of arts and culture. In 2013/4, they invested £933m in public libraries, £253m in theatres, £240m in museums and £128m in other support for the arts. But it’s not only their investment that’s important; they are a democratic leader with responsibility for other areas that may be of relevance to you. A good relationship can help you to:
ensure your council continues to fund you, and other arts and culture organisations, in the future
connect with your local community
influence local decisions
We have refreshed the Local Authority section in the Advocacy Toolkit so you can build relationships with your local councillors and create stories that get through.
As with MPs, it is important to emphasis the wider benefits of arts and culture, demonstrating how your work drives economic growth, boosts tourism, supports education, engages with the local community, involves children and young people and creates jobs. This is particularly important in the context of the Spending Review, when any cut to the Department for Communities and Local Government is likely to have a significant impact on Local Authority budgets.
