The Economic Impact Model for the Arts and Heritage (EIMAH) is an online tool that allows non-economists to calculate the economic impacts of expenditures on arts and heritage activities at the provincial, territorial and national levels. Such activities could include the development and operation of heritage institutions, art exhibitions, cultural events, as well as others. The model also estimates the economic impacts associated with visitor/tourism spending attributable to these activities. Developed by the Department of Canadian Heritage, the tool can be found online at: www.chin.gc.ca/mieap-eimah/

The application is composed of a series of tables that prompt the user to enter information. This information is used in turn by the model to calculate economic impacts.
