Cultural and Creative Industries and Public Policy
The Institute for Responsible Business and Social Justice houses researchers studying the creative industries, culture, leadership and community change. Collectively, this encompasses a wide range of research practice looking at cultural and creative industries, cultural and creative practice, hidden culture and sub-cultures, identity, and place-based approaches to understanding image, intermediaries, and value. Through our Design Lab, we also research and practise design thinking in a range of place-based, social, and community settings.
