Exploring existing creative initiatives
Creative culture and art communities spark innovation, imagination, and originality when facing local and global challenges, inspiring with their unique perspectives and creative processes. Citizen observatories can benefit from the involvement of creative minds in their activities since they can facilitate new ideas and unconventional solutions. This will result in dynamic, engaging outcomes and amplified lasting impact that may resonate with more diverse audiences. This section highlights why creatives and artists can be of great help for these processes and will be the introduction to following sections in which we will see how art-related groups and creative practitioners can be part of COs' citizen-led actions.
