Cebu: A Creative CIty?
In this first series on Cebu, we focus, in September 2016 on its creative city designation. We look at how this plays out in the rich and complex culture of the Cebu metropolitan with its challenges of poverty, infrastructure decay and divide. We explore its vibrant creative scene which is building new models of economic sustainability into its practice. Lastly, there is a reflection on what it may mean to work to be the best Creative City for yourself.
