Győr has been included in this platform’s list besides Budapest, Pécs, and Szeged. In this study the creative position of Győr, in relation to similar mid-sized Central and Eastern European cities is examined, thus estimating the creative po- tential of Győr. The analysis enables us to ob- serve the elements and indicators of a creative city that are used to measure and show crea- tivity. Exploring the city’s strengths and weaknesses provides guidance as the CCCM annually renews its evaluation and changes the ranking. With conscious initiatives Győr may become more creative, both internationally and locally. Based on the CCCM scores Győr has numerous strengths: favourable geograph- ic location, adequate amount of cultural offer- ings, strong economic potential, cultural vi- brancy, and a high level of participation in cul- tural life. However, the city has weak features Keywords: too, that require strengthening. The aim is for creative cities, the cities to become more creative, but this culture, requires analysis from the creative and cultural urban development, aspects.

Paducah is a creative community, and sometimes creativity shows up in the most surprising ways. The cornerstone of creativity is a willingness to explore new or challenging ideas. The citizens of Paducah recently embraced two difficult conversations, one about race and the other about gender identities, worldwide concerns. This compassionate city had these conversations with dignity and respect. I attended my first UNESCO Creative Cities Network meeting in Enghien-les-Bains (Media Arts). I enjoyed blogging about the experience and sharing options for participating in the Network, including film festivals, literary contests and opportunities to engage in international arts festivals. In September 2017, Paducah welcomed the Creative Cities of Crafts & Folk Art for the first annual meeting of the sub-network and the first UNESCO Creative Cities meeting to be held in the United States. Focused on the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, speakers led discussions on topics from tourism to economic development and natural resources. Paducah has “leaned in” to the Creative City designation, taking flight after five years with UNESCO as our guiding post.

Creative Cities. Mapping Creativity Driven Cities
Creativity has become a mantra of our age, endowed almost exclusively with positive virtues. At the last count, over 160 cities worldwide called themselves “creative city” from Creative Manchester to Creative Bristol and, of course, Creative London, in Britain. And ditto Canada: Toronto with its Culture Plan for the Creative City; Vancouver and the Creative City Task Force and Ottawa’s plan to be a creative city. In Australia we ﬁnd the Brisbane Creative City strategy and there is Creative Auckland. In the United States, there is Creative Cincinnati, Creative Tampa Bay and the welter of creative regions such as Creative New England. This document aims to bring together the experience of cities which have developed successful projects in order to achieve urban transformation, social inclusion, economic development and cultural prosperity through creativity. We are looking for the City 360° where the change has been driven by creativity.

Hungary; 2Eszterhazy Karoly University Eger, Hungary E-mail addresses: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract – The current study's topic is the summary of the roles of art colonies in the local example. The theoretical basis of the study was given by the international scientific literature of art colonies and the role of culture in the life of settlements. The matter of research is relevant as an investigation based on a case study has not been made yet on this topic; moreover, it consists of important results for the professionals. On this basis, it can be determined that which factors affect positively the human and natural environment through an art colony. A further advantage of the study can conclude to the possible development ways of culture in the life of villages. The current research, regarding the future, is an ideal starting point to know the role of art in local (and regional) development. The main results of the case study are the tangible effects of the colony on the (natural and human) environment. Keywords – art colony, culture, local development, Cered, Hungarian-Slovakian border region Received: December 30, 2020 Accepted: January 17, 2021 INTRODUCTION global network as well.

Creative Potential in the Cities and Its Exploitation in the Sustainable Development in Slovakia
Creative potential in the cities and its exploitation in the sustainable development in Slovakia Katarína Vitálišová Anna Vaňová, Soňa Čapková1, Mária Uramová2, Kamila Borseková3, Thierry Côme, Thomas Hélie, Fabrice Thuriot4 Abstract: Creativity has become crucial in the new trends in local and regional development. Together with innovations, not only traditional technological innovations, but particularly social, ecological or design innovations in the territory, they are considered the essential resource of development. Creative and cultural industries can help to boost economies, stimulate new activities, create new and sustainable jobs, have important spill over effects on other industries and enhance the attractiveness of territories (Communication from the EC to the EP, 2010). The creative potential is the maximum possible upgrading of the socio-economic performance of a township, by the introduction of the creative inputs (human capital, high-investment, creative class). Creativity and knowledge concentrated in cities and regions have led to perception of cities as economic development focal points of regions in which are cities located. Cities are becoming laboratories that provide genuine technological, organizational, legal and social solutions for their further growth (Hall, 2010). The paper reflects the insufficient exploration of creativity and innovations in cities of Slovak Republic as a key factor of endogenous growth (e. g. job creation, higher added value, etc.) and their implications in relation to building local competitive advantage. Nowadays, the Slovak local authorities in planning process pay only partial attention to these aspects, and there absent also the strategical approach to its exploitation in further local development. The paper has an ambition to cover partially this gap.

With increasing role of knowledge, creativity and innovation in the today’s economy, the role of the Creative Capital increases. Riga, Tallinn, and Vilnius are the capitals of the Baltic States, experiencing dynamic growth. Therefore, such a study would add to the assessment of the current status and identification of the possible improvements. The Creative Class Theory suggests that knowledge or creativity of people is the main driving force of the economic growth.

Unesco Creative Cities Network Tartu Unesco City
United Nations Designated UNESCO Creative City Cultural Organization in 2015 UNESCO CREATIVE CITIES NETWORK Membership Monitoring Report TARTU UNESCO CITY OF LITERATURE 2015-2019 Life is hard in this town, but it’s harder still to write about the town for people who don't live here. I do. And have survived. Maybe. But I love that town. With unbrushed teeth. Without a condom. Without love, with hatred, with myself. With the river that counts more than me. With alternating seasons that overwhelm me. A couple of days, a couple of girls and the Sky like a skeleton above it all. The face of this town has been perpetuated into my shoulder as stigma, a traffic light into death. A town which in its academic essence has promised to be more than a town, cannot be quite pure. The river flowing right in its middle, must wash something away. Although I don’t understand why it should be us. The riverbanks standing firm as questions. There is always an opportunity in the flow of a river, although time has no mercy. There is no almighty name of God in a flow. But here I am, in this town named Tartu. Heavy is the sky of this town, so heavy that it seems impossible to write prose here. Hannes Varblane, poet (Translated by Kersti Unt) 1 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY number. Although it is not entirely possible to outline CONTENTS the cause and effect relationship and distinguish the causes behind this kind of processes the UCCN mem- Tartu, widely recognised as the educational and intel- bership is clearly one of them.
