Summary: This handbook aims to provide accessible information, based on the findings of MESOC research, for all those interested in understanding, enabling and assessing the social impact of culture. Understanding the societal value of cultural activities and being able to measure and explain it is particularly relevant for those engaged in designing and implementing cultural projects on the ground, as well as for decision-makers and public and private managers who provide funding and establish priorities, and for researchers engaged in research and evaluation. As a result, the MESOC Handbook is particularly targeted at: Artists and cultural professionals involved in designing and implementing cultural projects that contribute to health and well-being, citizen engagement and urban or territorial renovation, who will be able to better articulate the value of their activities and revise them accordingly; Policymakers and public managers who design and implement strategies, policies or programmes on the social impact of culture at the local, regional, national or European levels and need suitable tools for planning and measurement; Managers of private funding programmes, who work to connect culture with social impact and need adequate measurement tools; Researchers, trainers and students in cultural management and cultural policy, who will have a new set of resources available to assess, understand and explore the intersections between culture and other áreas of societal value.
