Today, Tuesday, 21st April 2020 is World Creativity and Innovation Day which is observed to encourage people to generate new ideas to make the world a better place to live in.
This day inspires and enables others to live a more creative life.
World Creativity and Innovation Day (WCID) was founded on 25 May 2001 in Toronto, Canada. The founder of the day was the Canadian Marci Segal, who was studying creativity in 1977 at the International Center for Studies in Creativity. When the headline ‘Canada in Creativity Crisis’ appeared in the National Post, she decided to generate a World Creativity and Innovation Day. Because according to her at the time of crisis if people use their natural ability to generate new ideas, make new decisions, take new actions and achieve new outcomes, to make a better place in the world to live.
The creative arts sector in any economy has the capacity to propel economic growth if the policies that are germane to the industry are implemented.
