“By creating a working group around the creative economy, Penedo sends a clear and objective message that it has institutions of weight in all spheres of government mobilized and that will support projects, initiatives and actions for the development of the creative economy of Penedo”, explains the SETUR manager.
“At this point in the process, joining public and private forces makes a positive contribution not only to Penedo’s candidacy for the World Network of Creative Cities, in the Cinema category, but also to the technical development of the municipality in the segment”, said Karlinne Cordeiro, advisor technique from Setur Penedo.
“The municipal management was assertive in choosing the creative area of Cinema due to the capillarity of this sector with a consolidated Film Festival and, which, aligned with culture and creativity, will make Penedo one of the main tourist centers in Brazil, thus promoting , the socioeconomic development of the entire population of Penedo”, said Felipe Tiago, director of Ifal Campus Penedo.
“The Penedo Criativa Consortium is an unprecedented initiative of multi-institutional concertation to support the candidacy of a city for access to UNESCO’s World Network of Creative Cities, thus guaranteeing the necessary support for the execution of the projects that are agreed upon, demonstrating that this it is not just a challenge for municipal management, but for an entire city with a view to a better and more sustainable future, where culture and creativity will be at the center of public policies,” said Eduardo Barroso, specialist at the World Cities Network Creative.
