Beyond exchange: raising the value, increasing flow and ensuring socio-economic impact of arts & cultural resources in peripheral territories (Brazil)

国际文化交流与协作知识创造相结合，提高了艺术组织发展社会资本和“参与公民身份”的能力，为低收入地区带来多重社会经济利益。先前通过AHRC资助的项目“文化交流的艺术：2014-2016”[AH/M003612/1]开展的研究表明，英国和巴西的艺术家和艺术公司之间的知识调动如何产生与人类和社会发展相关的动态和创新效益。这项新提议将改变交流的轴心，从巴西和英国之间转移到巴西的艺术和文化组织，专注于在极度脆弱的低收入地区提供重要的经济、社会、文化和福利。英国和巴西的研究人员将与设在巴西社会脆弱地区的民间社会艺术组织合作，为里约热内卢周边社区创意经济中的超地方文化机构开发资源、培训活动和知识动员活动，以加强和衡量它们对联合国可持续发展目标的影响，特别强调：SDG1(无贫困)、SDG8(体面工作和经济增长)、SDG16(和平、正义和强大的机构)和SDG17(促进这些目标的伙伴关系)。在最初研究的基础上，通过继续在随后的影响之路上前进，一个合作的英国和巴西团队将在马雷贫民窟建立一个创意经济文化交流中心，并支持一个共享学习方案，培训60名在创意经济领域工作的艺术领袖和管理人员，介绍衡量其社会经济影响的创新社会技术和方法。该项目的目的是利用AHRC资助的研究来加强当地艺术组织的能力，并在里约热内卢市建立一个积极参与的网络，与负责政策层面决策的关键利益相关者建立联盟，以支持以发展为重点的创意经济倡议。这个后续资助的项目将通过对英国和巴西交流文化交流艺术的研究，推动创意实践方面的创新。中心和培训方案将使当地生产者、消费者和文化部门的政策制定者能够构建新的评估说明，促进设在脆弱地区的民间社会组织加强其实现社会和人类发展目标的工作，并促进关于艺术如何创造更安全、更健康、更富裕和更公平的社区的更广泛的辩论。该项目是与总部设在里约热内卢致命暴力指数高、社会经济发展指数低的地区的两个文化组织共同创建的。马雷[MaréNetworks]和Agencia de Redes Para a Juventude[青年网络机构]将确保利用艺术倡议的组织将从原始研究中学习的经验付诸实践，以在30多个外围社区的人类发展的多个层面实现可持续进步。该项目旨在让政府和非政府机构的政策制定者参与共同创建评估指标，以确保中心和培训方案产生的新证据和数据有助于并塑造以社会和人类发展为重点的文化政策的制定。这个后续项目将动员知识，扩大研究的影响，并建立一个相互支持的文化从业者和政策制定者网络，以加强艺术组织解决人类和社会发展问题的能力，并展示朝着联合国可持续发展目标取得的进展。

International cultural exchange combined with collaborative knowledge creation increases the ability of arts organisations to develop social capital and "engaged citizenship", delivering multiple socio-economic benefits for low-income territories. Previous research undertaken through the AHRC-funded project THE ART OF CULTURAL EXCHANGE: 2014-2016 [AH/M003612/1] produced research showing how knowledge mobilization between artists and arts companies in UK and Brazil produced dynamic and innovative benefits linked to human and social development. This new proposal will shift the axis of exchange, moving from between Brazil and the UK to across Brazilian arts and cultural organisations focused on delivering significant economic, social, cultural, welfare in low-income territories of extreme vulnerability. British and Brazilian researchers will collaborate with civil society arts organisations based in socially vulnerable territories in Brazil to develop resources, training activities and knowledge-mobilization activities for hyper-local cultural institutions in the creative economy of Rio de Janeiro's peripheral communities to strengthen and measure their impact towards the UN Sustainable Development Goals, with particular emphasis on: SDG1 (no poverty), SDG8 (decent work and economic growth), SDG16 (peace, justice and strong institutions) and SDG17 (partnerships for the goals). Drawing from the original research and by continuing on the pathways to impact that have followed, a collaborative British and Brazilian team will set up a and run a Cultural Exchange Hub for the Creative Economy in the favela-complex of Maré, and support a shared learning programme to train 60 arts leaders and managers working in the creative economy on innovative social technologies and methodologies that measure their socio-economic impact. The aim of the project is to draw from AHRC-funded research to strengthen the capacity of local arts organisations and create an engaged network across the city of Rio de Janeiro that builds alliances with key stakeholders responsible for policy-level decisions that can sustain development-focused creative economy initiatives.This Follow-on Funded project will take forward the innovations in creative practices advanced through research on UK-Brazil exchanges THE ART OF CULTURAL EXCHANGE. The hub and training programme will enable local producers, consumers and makers of policy in the cultural sector to construct new narratives of evaluation, facilitating civil society organisations based in vulnerable territories to enhance their work towards social and human development goals and to contribute to wider debates about how the arts create safer, healthier, wealthier and more equitable communities. The project has been co-created with two cultural organisations based in territories subject to high indices of lethal violence and low indices of socio-economic development in Rio de Janeiro. Redes da Maré [Maré Networks] and Agencia de Redes para a Juventude [the Agency for Youth Networks] will ensure that learning from the original research is put into practice by organisations using arts initiatives to achieve sustainable progress in multiple dimensions of human development across over 30 peripheral communities. The project has been designed to engage policymakers from government and non-governmental agencies in the co-creation of the evaluation indicators to ensure that the new evidence and data that is produced by the hub and training programme informs and shapes the creation of cultural policy that focuses on social and human development.This Follow-On project will mobilise knowledge, extend the impact of research and build a mutually sustaining network of cultural practitioners and policymakers that strengthens the capacity of arts organisation to address human and social development issues and demonstrate progress towards the UN SDGs.
