Economía, Innovación, Creatividad y Cultura
The Central American Education and Cultural Coordination, as part of the Central American Cultural integration Project, funded by the government of the Republic of Taiwan, is proud to present this Manual on Cultural Entrepreneurship, in the Caribbean Cultural Corridor, which has been developed as the result of workshops carried out in Belize, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama and the Dominican Republic.
This manual captures the shared experiences of artisans, painters, musicians, folk dance groups, independent dancers, hotel, hostels and room owners, among others, that carry out activities within the cultural and creative industries that favor local development and the consolidation and pacification of cultural projects in the Caribbean Coast.
Additionally, it collects experiences that contribute to the formulation and execution of business ideas. Therefore, this manual is a tool to promote cultural entrepreneurship and the development of creative industries. Furthermore, we want to thank Mrs. Martha Videa, who was in charge of executing the workshops and the drafting of this manual, and also the technical teams from the Ministries, Directorates and Departments AUTHOR of culture that contributed with CECC/SICA in technical and logistic aspects.
