Cultural and creative industries make a significant contribution to the world economy. The cultural sector accounts for 3.1 per cent of global gross domestic product (GDP) (UNESCO, 2022), while this report estimates that in 2020, creative goods and services represented 3 and 21 per cent of total merchandise and services exports, respectively. In addition, cultural and creative industries provide 6.2 per cent of all employment generating nearly 50 million jobs worldwide, although many of these are short-term and lowpaid. They employ more young people (age group of 15–29-year-olds) than any other sectors (UNESCO, 2022). Employment in these industries favours women and youth. These factors place creative industries as crucial sectors for the achievement of the 2030 agenda.
