The UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS) is inviting Member States and stakeholders worldwide to review and provide feedback on the first Draft Report of the Cultural and Creative Ecosystem (CCE) Indicators Framework. Building on the 2025 UNESCO Framework for Cultural Statistics (FCS), which introduced a new conceptual model of the cultural and creative ecosystem, the CCE Indicators Framework takes the next step by proposing measures and indicators adapted to this model. This consultation will help further refine the proposed framework and its indicators, taking into account the perspectives and needs of policymakers and other stakeholders.
The global consultation opens on 23 September 2026 and will help shape the proposed framework and its indicators before the publication of the full Methodological Manual in 2027.
