Abstract

This Final Report distils the key strategic learning arising from Design in Action – an Arts & Humanities Research Council Knowledge Exchange Hub for the Creative Economy (2012-16). The report draws on reflective evidence from the key participants, economic impacts arising from the interventions in the chosen field of study and case studies arising from four years of diverse practice. DiA has spent four years making sense of its own agency in a complex environment of knowledge exchange, HEIs, economic development agencies and government policy. These reflections and recommendations arise from this work rather than through exhaustive power and ecosystem mapping.
