Project description
Culture-driven challenging processes to reshape a better future
Communities across Europe are facing the challenge of socio-economic recovery to promote a transformative change. The EU-funded STARTUP project seeks to address this aim by focusing on cultural heritage and creative industries to drive the transition towards a beautiful, inclusive, sustainable environment. Aligned with the New European Bauhaus' core values, STARTUP will adopt the placemaking paradigm – a bottom-up, small-scale, place-based approach, introducing ethical elements in planning. Through eight trials as well as the mapping and analysis of specific case studies, the project will explore how European communities try to turn some proximity spaces into creative places, encouraging a co-design process. STARTUP's final result will be a European Creative Placemaking Framework, a policy tool based on local cultural and creative professionals engaged in their art.
Objective
STARTUP will engage in a double-sided process of taking action and doing research that promotes transformative change. The project highlights the critical role of cultural heritage (CH) and the cultural creative industries (CCIs) in socio-economic, post-crisis recovery and their potential to drive the transition towards a beautiful, inclusive, sustainable environment. These principles align with the New European Bauhaus’s (NEB) core values, which seek to engage citizens, institutions, and creative individuals as thinkers and change-makers in shaping a better future. The project adopts the placemaking paradigm, which promotes a bottom-up, small-scale and place-based approach. In eight small-scale trials, placemaking based on culture and creativity will be tested and refined. Cultural mapping and comparative case study research will further promote the knowledge-base for such interventions. The trials, mappings and case studies will form the empirical underpinnings of analyses of sustainable architectural design, multi-level policy and governance, and social, economic and environmental impacts (positive and negative) of culture-driven placemaking. These analyses, in turn, will form the evidence-base for STARTUP’s final results and main outcome: a “European Creative Placemaking Framework”, which is the policy-option STARTUP will innovate. The approach of the framework builds upon local actors in culture and creativity, and aims at strengthening these actors as well as local authorities, in building their future on the tangible and intangible cultural resources represented in the place. The framework, which aims to be a world-leading management tool, hereby supports local economic development, sustainability, social cohesion and identity across Europe, but based on local cultural and creative professionals engaged in their art.
