Objective: international engagement - Inform and establish a strategy for international engagement of the Arts and Culture sector including the creative industries.
Recommendation and response
Accepted.
Development of the export and investment strategy is responding to the current and future export landscapes for the sector, recognising the added impetus that COVID-19 brings to support the arts, culture and creative sectors to develop and sustain and viable business models.
The strategy’s scope and potential is being informed by consultation and opportunities provided by the Growth State Creative Industries Strategy, as well as research conducted for the review of Arts South Australia’s grants program (Objective 2) and sector engagement in response to the devastating impacts of COVID-19.
Accepted.
The Arts Plan Advisory Group, including representatives from the Department for Innovation and Skills, Department for Education, Department of Primary Industry and Regions and Department for Trade and Investment, continues to support the integration and implementation of Arts Plan recommendations across government. This group will be instrumental in the delivery of this strategy.
Arts South Australia has begun preliminary scoping and discussions with key stakeholders around collaborative initiatives to attract international students and enhance Adelaide’s brand as a leading centre for tertiary education in the arts.
However, given the significant and ongoing impact of COVID-19 on the international education sector, further work on this recommendation will commence in early 2022.
