Bio / presentation
The Creativity and Culture Unit of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) collaborates internally to drive economic growth, inclusion, and job creation through art, creativity, and culture. It uses these areas as tools for communication and innovation, promoting the strategic role of the bank in showcasing Latin American and Caribbean culture through exhibitions, events, and a notable art collection that reflects the cultural diversity of the member countries. Additionally, it highlights the economic value of the creative industries based on talent, intellectual property, and cultural heritage through outreach, technical assistance, and strategic alliances. The unit focuses on transforming culture and creativity into economic assets, working with various sectors of the IDB to strengthen the creative ecosystem, empower SMEs, foster inclusion, generate employment, digitalize industries, and enhance urban development.
