Abstract

The CASE programme is a joint strategic research programme led by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) and its sector-leading arms-length bodies: Arts Council England, English Heritage, Museums, Libraries and Archives Council and Sport England. The aim of CASE is to use interdisciplinary research methods and analysis to inform the development of policy in culture and sport. CASE is closely linked to the Taking Part Survey both in terms of using data from the survey and in using the definitions of the sectors implicit in the choice of activities and levels of engagement included in the survey.The programme was set up in 2008 and the ‘drivers, impact and value of engagement’ project was commissioned in December of that year. A year and half later, and the largest single piece of policy research in culture and sport is published. This is no ordinary research project. It is almost a programme in itself, comprising 3 different strands, each with a major report. It is the most comprehensive piece of work in this field, assessing a huge range of research and data, setting the foundations for evidence-based policy-making in culture and sport upon which future work can build. In addition to the reports, two new tools have been created to help policy-makers employ the available evidence: A new, comprehensive research database and a new computer simulation model. These provide a step-change in the ability to build culture and sport policy using evidence, and to retain the future knowledge gained through new initiatives both in the UK and abroad. These resources will add value to a huge range of activities in this sphere.
