Australian cultural and creative activity: A population and hotspot analysis

该项目旨在把握当代澳大利亚文化和创意活动的动态。它代表了一项重大创新，将人口水平和对当地文化和创意活动的比较研究结合在一起。该综合项目将推动定量和定性研究策略的整合，绘制完整的全国图景，同时探索产生地方和区域创意热点的因素。该项目将提供报告和论坛等产出，这些产出是与合作伙伴密切合作制定的，目的是提供更有针对性的政策和方案倡议等成果。在澳大利亚经济转型的背景下，将创意部门作为高增长、劳动密集型经济活动的重要贡献者，摆在政策制定者面前，这将为国家文化和政策带来好处。

This project aims to grasp the contemporary dynamics of cultural and creative activity in Australia. It represents a major innovation, bringing together population-level and comparative studies of local cultural and creative activity. The comprehensive project will advance the integration of quantitative and qualitative research strategies, painting a complete national picture, while also exploring the factors that are producing local and regional creative hotspots. The project will deliver outputs such as reports and forums that are framed in close collaboration with partners in order to deliver outcomes such as better-targeted policy and program initiatives. This will provide national cultural and policy benefits from placing the creative sector in front of policy makers as a vital contributor to high growth, labour-intensive economic activity in the context of the Australian economy in transition.
