Towards Plan A

Project description

Our director Mandy Barnett was commissioned in 2013 to write a briefing paper for one of four seminars to discuss a new case for investment in culture with ACE and the RSA. In turn she invited Daniel Fujiwara to share the authorship having worked with Daniel on Happy Museum. The paper introduces ‘return on cultural investment’ which we are developing into a methodology called Culture3 (Culture Cubed) for assessing cultural capital in a local area using triple bottom line thinking.
