Culture and Sustainable Development
– a flagship project in EUSBSR (2.0)
Culture is part of the sustainability agenda today
1987 Brundtland report: 3 pillars of sustainability – economic, social, environment
Culture as 4th pillar?…culture across borders, shaping standards and behavior
Growing attention from politics // business // cities // regions
But HOW – and what works?

EUSBSR strategy – priority area culture
Nordic Council of Ministers led flagship project
Mapping existing stakeholders, activities, interests and opportunities for cooperation
First step --- then:
Develop knowledge: Baltic Sea Region // impact of culture // sustainable development
// economic // social // environmental // cultural

Phase 1: Mapping stakeholders, activities, interests and opportunities for cooperation
Result:
“Culture and Sustainable development-8 findings, a number of opportunities and a way forward”
Dome of Visions, CPH

- The stakeholders- Their current activities- Their interests in engaging
⇒ opportunities for cooperation

Findings and opportunities…
The area of cultural collaboration and sustainability is rich and complex
⇒ Stakeholders engage in many ways, for many reasons
⇒ A snapshot
⇒ Diversity // abundance // fragmentation
Not one identity but a number
⇒ Several vectors: Nordic-Baltic, Nordic-Russian, German-Russian
⇒ Bi-lateral linkages impact on activities of born-baltic institutions
⇒ Complexity can also be an asset = Diversity => innovation

Europe 2020 Strategy provides a launch pad for C&S initiatives
⇒ Smart, Sustainable and Inclusive
⇒ Growth and development
Need for cultural stakeholders to engage beyond own sphere and comfort zone
⇒ Culture can catalyse a shift away from sector-based policy making
… if culture values are communicated and tailored to meet also other objectives

Some challenges
⇒ Different approaches to culture and to sustainability
⇒ Different approaches to stakeholder engagement and cooperation
⇒ Lack of knowledge on cultural drivers for sustainability ('proof of concepts’, practices and tools).
But BSR have opportunities to pioneer sustainable development through culture
⇒ Urban Development
⇒ Creative Industries
⇒ Social Innovation (the social process of innovation + innovation with social purpose)

Seek for solutions through complexity // diversity
⇒ Diverse histories, identities, social systems and approaches to culture and sustainable development
⇒ Use diverse meshworks to increase awareness and cross-fertilize efforts
There is an outspoken need for improved dialogue
⇒ Connect rich but fragmented activities and efforts
⇒ Engage stakeholders at different levels from within and outside the cultural sphere
⇒ Focus on practical and concrete activities
• stories, practices, idea generation, anchoring, innovation

Opportunities?
Reducing complexity to embrace sustainability
Culture as the transversal vector across sectors
Examples:
– innovation centres / hubs across art, gaming, social leverage
– frontrunners in sectors: business, art, science, urban planning, innovation, etc
– improving cross-fertilization
– transcultural // transdisciplinary // practical engagement
– renewing islands // sectors // regions // industries // communities

Summarizing findings..
A myriad of projects
Multitude of approaches/methods
Lack of knowledge of effects
Lack of visibility among agents
Lack of cross-fertilizing
More transdisciplinarity and transversality needed
![Page 13: Cult sus bsr for seba conference oleg koefoed 01](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042700/5595fbe81a28abc6548b47b0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Findings and opportunities…
AHEAD: successful projects have a clear and understandable scope
→ Having a clear focus also implies some reduced complexity
→ Action-based and action-inviting increases motivation
→ High strategic ambitions attract attention and support
→ Joint knowledge building must be made an advantage
