Overview of Multi-Component Output

This output is made up of four investigations led by HERITAGE and produced by People’s Palace Projects (PPP) - a research centre in the School of English and Drama at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) where HERITAGE is Director - which explore how arts organisations can produce quantifiable socio-economic evidence about the impact and value of their work:

COMPONENT 1 - RELATIVE VALUES (2016-17): Creating a prototype toolkit to enable arts organisations to measure the impact of their own work in fragile urban territories.

COMPONENT 2 - RELATIVE VALUES II (2019): Adapting methodologies for use at a micro-scale in fragile urban territories subject to multiple stress-factors (socio-economic exclusion, high levels of violence, etc) in Brazil.

COMPONENT 3 - RELATIVE VALUES III (2018-19): A pilot research project commissioned by Itaú Cultural for the application of the Relative Values toolkit with five arts organisations in urban and rural territories across Brazil.

COMPONENT 4 - COUNTING CULTURE (2018-20): A comparative study on UK/Brazil cultural policy (focus on relationship between social development and the creative economy).
