1 British Council - Study Tour to the UK Terms of Reference The British Council The British Council was founded to create a friendly knowledge and understanding between the people of the UK and the wider world. We call this work cultural relations. We achieve this purpose through our work in the following three core areas: Education and Society English Arts The Creative Economy (part of Arts) team develops new collaborations, innovation and enterprise with the rapidly-changing creative and cultural industries worldwide. We re helping to build sustainable businesses in the creative and cultural industries worldwide. We share knowledge and experience through skills workshops, mentoring and peer networks. Background The Egyptian economy has reached a critical stage with low growth, high unemployment (13.2% overall but higher for young people), rising budget deficit and debt and the trade deficit standing at 71.7 bn US. Despite these burdens, a recent report from the Ministry of International Cooperation suggests that the Egyptian economy enjoys great potential for growth. Egypt has a wealth of human capital (a demographic gift ) as young people, who are almost half the population, can, if skilled and employed, create growth and prosperity. The country has a large consumer market for producers and as yet not fully exploited resources in the fields of tourism, industries and services. The government has made stimulating the economy one of its key priorities and has increased spending on public investments for projects that serve lowincome groups, create job opportunities for youth, reduce unemployment rates and increase demand for local products. Despite the sharp downfall in the state sector, Egypt still has strong publishing, TV and film and music production industries. There is little official information on the contribution of these and other creative sectors to the GDP of Egypt, nor on the number of jobs they create. Unofficial estimates suggest that between 400, ,000 people are employed in the creative sector, with many being members of organised, professional unions that require members to be graduated from a specialised university-level academic institution. However, in general, the infrastructure (soft and hard) for the creative sector is underdeveloped and there is room for further development of structured programmes which support the creative economy, particularly those which encourage public and private sector collaboration. The implementation of intellectual property rights is mixed, but there is growing understanding from inside the sector of the importance of devoting more attention to them. Initiatives specifically supporting cultural and creative entrepreneurship are few, but they are receiving significant funding from international donors, including the EU s support to both the Bibliotheca Alexandrina s cultural industries mapping project and UNIDO s project Development of Clusters in Cultural
2 and Creative Industries in the Southern Mediterranean and the Egyptian government funded Creative Egypt project (run by the Industrial Modernisation Council). Over the next three years the British Council Egypt plans to strengthen capacity at the individual, institutional, community and policy levels to support business development and improved social and economic well-being for a more dynamic, relevant creative sector prepared for the future. Our approach with be top down and bottom up and will offer support for different organisational and individual life stages. Our legacy will include: An increased number of individual entrepreneurs and institutions working more entrepreneurially to make sustainable and resilient businesses out of their creative practice and having positive impacts on their community through this Creative businesses and individuals collaborating to achieve maximum impact for their communities Policy that supports a dynamic and economically sustainable creative sector A repository of curated resources for entrepreneurs, policy-makers and cultural leaders translated into Arabic and easily accessible As part of our top down approach, by the end of FY : A group of 8 key stakeholders in the creative economy, including government officials, business leaders, creative entrepreneurs and educators will be active and committed champions for the creative economy in Egypt and leading on policy development 300 leaders in government, business, education and enterprise will have participated in policy dialogues and action-planning for policy development to support the creative economy As a first step to achieving our longer term goals, we will host a study tour to the UK for a group of 8 key stakeholders in the creative economy, including government officials, business leaders, creative entrepreneurs and educators. This will: a) Support the government of Egypt in policy-making and long-term planning for the development of the creative economy s contribution to economic prosperity b) Encourage discussion on possible government-to-government collaboration c) Raise awareness among decision-makers of the increasing importance of the creative sector to the creation of jobs and the generation of wealth d) Raise awareness of the UK s strengths in the creative economies, particularly around the development of creative cities and creative hubs e) Create a forum for discussion, information exchange, and action-planning between Egyptian and UK government bodies, cultural organisations, networks of entrepreneurs and educators f) Build the capacity and skills of the members of this forum to enable them to lead advocacy and policy-making on the creative economies g) Create a cadre of champions for the creative economies in Egypt The study tour will be followed by a policy dialogue in Egypt led by the group of government officials, business leaders, creative entrepreneurs and educators who completed the UK study tour in This will: a) Raise awareness more widely across these sectors of the importance of the creative sector to the creation of jobs and the generation of wealth 2
3 The project b) Build a wider forum for discussion, information exchange, and action-planning between Egyptian and UK government bodies, cultural organisations, networks of entrepreneurs and educators c) Result in action planning for future policy dialogues and activities d) Create increased trust with the UK We are seeking a UK consultant to programme and lead a study tour for the Egyptian delegation from 29 February-4 March This will involve: Identifying UK government departments/officials, business leaders, creative entrepreneurs and educators who will best demonstrate how the UK: o supports a vibrant creative economy through policy making and government intervention, particularly around the creation of jobs o Tailors educational provision to produce graduates qualified to work in and lead creative industries o builds local initiatives to support creative cities and business hubs o Maps and records the contribution of the creative industries to the overall wealth of the country Creating a 5 day programme in the UK which introduces all the above concepts to the delegation.
