We investigate the empirical relationship between ethnicity and culture, defined as a vector of traits reflecting norms, values, and attitudes. Using survey data for 76 countries, we find that ethnic identity is a significant predictor of cultural values, yet that within-group variation in culture trumps between-group variation. Thus, in contrast to a commonly held view, ethnic and cultural diversity are unrelated. Although only a small portion of a country's overall cultural heterogeneity occurs between groups, we find that various political economy outcomes (such as civil conflict and public goods provision) worsen when there is greater overlap between ethnicity and culture.
According to a report published by UNESCO in February 2022, cultural and creative industries accounted for 3.1 percent of the global gross domestic product and 6.2 percent of global employment in 2020. That year, the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic set unprecedented challenges for this market. Overall, due to the pandemic, it was estimated that cultural and creative industries worldwide lost around 750 billion U.S. dollars in gross value added (GVA) and 10 million jobs in 2020.

The UNESCO Culture dataset contains three tables:
The livelihoods of millions depend on cultural or creative industries of all shapes and sizes - from the weaver in a local co-operative to the crew of a major film production.

Public reception conditions from May 2020 have been constrained by sanitary measures limiting reception capacity. _
