Art, culture and heritage also play an increasingly prominent role in the quality of life and perceptions of neighborhoods, municipalities, cities or regions. Both for residents and users and for visitors. In addition to its direct intrinsic value, art, culture and heritage are also important levers for quality living together, for educational and economic purposes, for attractive city centers and regions, for a high-quality public space, for thriving retail and catering. IDEA Consult guides local authorities in developing and optimizing their cultural potential and in making promising connections with other sectors and policy domains.
