UNESCO MEETING
HELD IN PERTH
UNESCO UK’s Local to Global Scotland group workshop was hosted by Perth UNESCO City of Craft and Folk Art.
Being a UNESCO City of Craft means we’re committed to strengthening and further embedding craft and folk art into decision-making, sustainable development, communities and culture at all levels.
We’re doing this in three clear ways:
- Developing partnerships within the UNESCO Creative Cities Network
- Highlighting and creating opportunities for our local makers
- Strengthening networks and connections between creative communities across Perth and Kinross
What is
a UNESCO
Creative City?
