Abstract

Intergovernmental bodies such as the European Union and UNESCO, are active in developing programmes and funding initiatives intended to support urban cultural development. Frequently, these programmes are strongly focused on city imaging, place marketing, and cultural tourism. From a consideration of recent statements and initiatives of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network (UCCN), the chapter suggests that the decision to affiliate the UCCN directly with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals is posing a number of challenges for the Network and its member cities, including those of Asia, not least of which is determining what sustainability might mean for a scheme which implicitly encourages inter-city competition and was formed primarily to support and showcase creativity and the cultural economy.
