Joining the network means being part of an international community of cities that share experiences, policies and projects, promoting creativity as a tool for collaboration, innovation and sustainable transformation. Since 2014 Turin has been a UNESCO Creative City for Design, a recognition that highlights the role of design as a strategic element for the city's development and as a tool for relations between institutions, businesses, creative communities and the territory. The forum brings together some of the Italian cities belonging to the UNESCO Creative Cities network, to share strategies, projects and initiatives developed following the nomination. Through discussion panels and storytelling moments, the meeting will be an opportunity to reflect on the contribution of cultural and creative industries
