The Arts Council of Wales, through Wales Arts International, has been awarded European funding for a interregional project called Toolquiz.
Toolquiz is a strategic interregional project between seven regions to develop the connection between culture and creativity and employability. It is a project that covers both cultural and economic development, looking particularly at skills in the creative sector, and skills transfer to other sectors.
Through the exchange and transfer of knowledge and good practice between the regions, Toolquiz is developing knowledge about the economic potential of the creative and cultural sector. The project is helping to position Wales as a cultural nation and a key region in terms of investing in creative and cultural skills.
