Abstract

Culture-led regeneration is an important development of cultural policy in recent years. This paper takes the city of Hull, which was selected as a British cultural city in 2017, and discusses the strategy and implementation process of cultural regeneration. Analyzes the cultural activities of Hull City, and assess its impact on economic growth, social solidarity, and resident well-being. The study found that cultural regeneration significantly promoted the local economy, enhanced community cohesion, and improved the quality of life of the residents. However, Hull City also faces challenges in resource allocation and long-term sustainability. The conclusions of this paper show that cultural regeneration has reference value for other cities intentionally implementing similar strategies and helps to achieve sustainable and inclusive urban development.
