Background
The 2030 Agenda adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in 2015 integrates, for the first time, the role of culture in sustainable development, through cultural heritage and creativity. This was further explored in a 2018 report published by the Royal Society for the encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce (RSA) in partnership with the British Council. Heritage for Inclusive Growth advocates for a systemic approach to bringing together heritage and economic development with a range of inclusive social, economic and environmental outcomes.
