Carnival is where identity, belonging, dignity, joy & collective futures are made visible. This week, we launch new research with Brazil's Ministry of Culture, treating Carnival not as temporary spectacle but as an enduring economy—studying what it reveals about public value & the creative economy.

Great to present to leaders from across the UK public sector on how to build state capacity for the UK Government’s five missions, in partnership with the UK Cabinet Office.
