Developing Inclusive and Creative Economies (DICE) was launched as a two-year pilot programme in March 2018, extended beyond this phase, owing to the success of the pilot. The programme aims to contribute to inclusive and sustainable development by supporting creative social enterprises (CSEs) and by strengthening the ecosystem in which they operate, prioritising key areas around gender, disability, marginalised communities and youth unemployment. DICE is currently being delivered in Brazil, Indonesia, Pakistan, South Africa, Egypt and UK.
DICE is delivering initiatives that support individuals, enterprises, institutions and policymakers; by conducting research and gathering evidence; and by working across borders, sectors, silos, networks, and generations.
