Measuring Cultural and Heritage Impacts

Description:

This event is the third in our ‘Measuring Impacts’ series. This series of workshops aimed to provide you with more detailed guidance and support for measuring impacts in your Business Cases across six topic areas. During each session, the presenters identified key resources and guidance to help you measure benefits and impacts in your Business Cases.

This session focused on how to articulate the economic benefits/impacts of culture and heritage projects. This included an overview of DCMS’s Valuing Culture and Heritage Capital framework, as well as different methods to quantify economic benefits of cultural and heritage assets / interventions, and key appraisal considerations.
