Includes index

This book explores the role that arts and culture can play in supporting global international development. The book argues that arts and culture are fundamental to human development, and can bring considerable positive results for helping to empower communities and provide new ways of looking at social transformation. Whilst most literature addresses culture in abstract terms, this book focuses on practice-based, collective, community-focused, sustainability-minded, and capacity-building examples of arts and development.
