Development seen from a more holistic perspective looks beyond the
expansion of material means and considers the enrichment of
people's lives. The arts are an indispensable asset in taking a
comprehensive approach toward the improvement of lives.
Incorporating aspects of international trade, education,
sustainability, gender, mental health and social inclusion, The
Creative Wealth of Nations demonstrates the diverse impact of
applying the arts in development to promote meaningful economic and
social progress. Patrick Kabanda explores a counterintuitive and
largely invisible creative economy: whilst many artists struggle to
make ends meet, the arts can also be a promising engine for
economic growth. If nations can fully engage their creative wealth
manifested in the arts, they are likely to reap major monetary and
nonmonetary benefits from their cultural sector. Drawing from his
own experience of the support music provided growing up amidst
political and economic turmoil in Uganda, Kabanda shows us the
benefits of an arts-inclusive approach to development in Africa,
and beyond.
