The pandemic has had dramatic effects in the cultural and creative industries (CCI) in MERCOSUR countries and Latin America. This sector, traditionally linked to the freelance workforce with limited social and economic protection, is experiencing the accelerated digitization of face-to-face activities and business models. Up-to-date and systematized data is therefore vital to assess and respond to the disruptive impact of the pandemic through evidence-based public policies. Policymakers and government technical teams, economists of the culture sector, artists and cultural workers, entrepreneurs, private investors and researchers will find reliable data and useful in-depth analysis of findings and trends. Sharing data with a regional perspective is key to identify new opportunities and strengthen cooperation in culture at the regional level.
