Background
First produced in 1989, Arts RiPPA has profiled hundreds of research projects over more than 20 years.
Arts RiPPA is based on information provided by cultural policy researchers from across Australia. The digest is fully searchable and includes links to completed research and research contacts.
The focus is on research into the arts as social, cultural or economic practice, with an emphasis on investigating contemporary policy issues and trends in the cultural sector, providing information, analysis and insight to help drive policy and planning. It includes qualitative and quantitative research into arts audiences and participants, as well as analytical research into creative industry development, arts impacts, infrastructure support for artists and regulatory and policy instruments.
With Arts RiPPA the Australia Council aims to improve the information flow between policymakers and researchers, building the profile of arts and cultural policy research in Australia and beyond.
