MWITA-CM-2026-018 · Evidence A · P1
UNESCO's 2026 global cultural-policy report states digital revenue rose from 17% of creators' income in 2018 to 35%, while essential digital skills reached 67% in developed countries versus 28% in developing countries; only 48% of countries produced statistics on digital cultural-content consumption.
What this does not establish
Higher digital revenue share does not mean higher or stable total income; country reporting is not individual outcome evidence.
Counterevidence & uncertainty
Cross-country definitions and reporting capacity vary.
What would change the reading
Track harmonized creator income, gender, language and platform-concentration data.
