Enabling actions to support access and strengthen industries

a webinar exploring enablers that can complement cultural funding

This webinar explored enabling actions governments can adopt, beyond direct cultural funding, to support cultural access and strengthen creative industries. It was held following the release of ANA’s Insight Report, Government, culture and creativity: It’s about more than just funding.

The webinar highlights this report’s findings on enabling actions, uniquely available to governments, that are proven to be successful in Australia and around the world. In this challenging economic environment, enablers can complement and enhance – not replace – direct cultural funding.

ANA Director of Policy Sarah-Jane Bennett and Researcher Dr Sari Rossi introduce the report and explore eight distinct categories of enablers designed to facilitate financial inflows, improve organisational operations and increase consumer engagement.
