The European Commission has recently released the second edition of its Cultural and Creative Cities Monitor, a tool designed to benchmark and boost the creative and cultural potential of European cities.
The Cultural and Creative Cities Monitor is designed to help national, regional and municipal policy makers identify local strengths and opportunities and benchmark their cities against similar urban centres compared to other sites in Europe, using both quantitative and qualitative data.
This tool can be also useful for archives to monitor what is their role in promoting the cultural and creative potential of European cities – which is a fundamental aspect to both eonomic growth and quality of life overall.
