In 2013, Krakow joined the UNESCO Creative Cities Network, having been given the title of the City of Literature. A few days ago, the network was enlarged by 64 new cities! Each of them specializes in one of the seven creative domains: literature, music, film, visual arts, craft and folk art, and gastronomy.
There is one representative from Poland among them – Łódź, which is now UNESCO City of Film and the third creative city in Poland! In turn, the list of the Cities of Literature was augmented with Utrecht (the Netherlands), Québec City (Canada), Seattle (USA), Manchester (Great Britain), Milan (Italy), Lillehammer (Norway), Durban (RSA), and Bucheon (South Korea).
Congratulations!
Creative Cities Network is a UNESCO Programme established in 2004, aimed at promoting the practice of cooperation between the cities and regions which base their development on different aspects of creative economy. UNESCO grants the Creative City title in seven domains: literature, music, film, visual arts, craft and folk art, and gastronomy. The main mission of the Network is to build an international partnership in order to support the creative sector and promote creativity understood as a factor of sustainable development. Currently, the Network associates 180 cities from 72 countries.
