Creative Citizenship

Community, Creative Industries and the Future

A FREE Public Forum

Wednesday 27 September – Thursday 28 September 2006

Charles Darwin University has a successful history of engaging with its community through the creative arts and the broader context of creativity. In both Darwin and Alice Springs the creative arts have contributed significantly to the development of a strong community identity and to a community that supports creativity. On September 27 and 28, Charles Darwin University hosted a symposium in Alice Springs to explore various aspects of this relationship. The symposium explored a number of key themes and case studies.

Key themes included:

  • The Creative Citizen
  • Cultural Identity through the Creative Arts
  • Technology: Building and Linking Communities
  • Public Policy as a Creative Catalyst
