The Cultural Database Survey is a Saudi national platform launched by the Ministry of Culture on September 2, 2020. It specializes in cataloging active forces and cadres in the Saudi cultural sector. The platform operates through surveys to record personal and professional data of individuals, which will be used in the future to design strategic cultural projects and to facilitate communication with those working in all creative fields. These fields include films, language and translation, books and publishing, music, theater and performing arts, literature, visual arts, fashion, libraries, heritage, museums, architecture and design, and culinary arts.
The Ministry of Culture aims to understand the components of the cultural and artistic community in the Kingdom across all its creative paths through a unified data platform. This platform contributes to the development of supporting programs and initiatives and helps in understanding the nature and scale of projects that can harness local artistic and cultural talents. The Cultural Database Survey operates in several phases: the first phase involves collecting basic professional data of artists and intellectuals, while the subsequent phases are more detailed and cover all matters related to the artistic and cultural sector.
