Lluís Bonet Agustí

Lluís Bonet Agustí is a Professor at the Faculty of Information and Audiovisual Media at the University of Barcelona, affiliated with the Center for Research Information, Communication and Culture. His academic work spans over two decades with consistent publications in cultural policy, management, and heritage studies. He maintains an active international research profile through collaborations across Europe and Latin America.

His research interests focus on the intersection of cultural policy frameworks and practical management challenges in the cultural sector. Bonet Agustí has made significant contributions to understanding cultural-creative crowdfunding mechanisms, international cultural relations from peripheral perspectives, and innovative approaches to cultural heritage management. His work often examines how cultural organizations navigate economic constraints while maintaining artistic integrity and public service missions.

Analysis of his recent publications (2023-2024) reveals three dominant thematic streams: cultural-creative crowdfunding mechanisms (with comparative analyses across European and Latin American contexts), international cultural relations from peripheral perspectives (particularly examining Southern European and Ibero-American dynamics), and cultural heritage skills development (through his involvement in the CHARTER project). His methodological approach combines comparative policy analysis with empirical case studies of specific cultural organizations and funding mechanisms.

Bonet Agustí maintains active participation in numerous international research projects including the CHARTER project on cultural heritage education and previous involvement in the Be SpectACTive! project focused on audience engagement in performing arts. His work demonstrates consistent engagement with both theoretical frameworks and practical implementation challenges in cultural management.
