The five opportunities outlined in this 2024 report draw on the evidence and analysis by ANA of available data, as well as a broader ambition for more effective collaboration and coordination, improved transparency through reporting and effective investment that secures cultural and creative opportunities in Australia.

Creative Communities is an expansive, ten-year policy that recognises the unique place of arts, culture and the creative industries in New South Wales.

This report analyses international and Australian evidence to understand the contribution of culture and creativity to productivity and demonstrate it can be enhanced through integrated, innovative policy design.

The discussion paper seeks to identify the industries and occupations that may fall within the arts and culture sector, whether existing modern awards cover those identified industries and occupations and if there are any potential gaps in that coverage.

This paper provides examples of artificial intelligence (AI) that Australians are applying in arts, culture and creativity. It also discusses key foreseeable impacts of AI, which deserve attention from people and organisations considering whether and how to apply AI, and how to balance the risks and benefits of deploying AI within creative and cultural industries.
