International Appeal of 7 June 2020
The International Appeal of 7 June 2020, "Towards a cultural renaissance of the economy", was signed by creatives, economists and leaders of international organizations, and was published simultaneously in Corriere della Sera,[1] El País[2] and Le Monde.[3]
It offers a new vision of culture and the economy. Culture is a key component of sustainable development and should have its status as a guiding thread for the economy restored. The economy will then "be able to fully express its humanity, once it has been permeated by all the rich potential of culture".[4]
Signatories[edit]
The appeal has 24 signatories.
Contents[edit]
Using a definition of sustainable development in which the human environment includes "culture, nature and social bonds", the signatories championed a radical change, a paradigm shift in which culture stops being "perceived as ancillary" and is instead "seen as the real ecosystem that it in fact represents" due to its "rising importance".
The local environment is interpreted as a new motivating factor for value creation. "All territories, including those less economically and technologically well-endowed, have a cultural message to share. It is a matter of giving each of them the chance to showcase what makes them unique, in a world where homogenization is a sign of devitalization.”
This systemic approach will have an impact on many different sectors. In this respect, the signatories mentioned housing and human diets in particular.
