Creative Europe-Ausschreibung
The Creative Europe programme 2021-2027, Culture strand of the programme, published a call for proposals on European Cooperation Projects. These are transnational projects involving cultural and creative organisations from different countries. They give cultural organisations of all sizes the possibility to co-produce, cooperate, experiment, innovate, be mobile and learn from each other. The action aims to improve access to European culture and creative works and to promote innovation and creativity. Projects can cover one or more cultural and creative sectors and can be interdisciplinary.
Support will be given to cooperation projects contributing to one of the following objectives:
- Objective 1 – Transnational creation and circulation: to strengthen the transnational creation and circulation of European works and artists;
- Objective 2 – Innovation: to enhance the capacity of European cultural and creative sectors to nurture talents, to innovate, to prosper and to generate jobs and growth.
In addition, projects must address at least one (and no more than two) of the following priorities: audience, social inclusion, sustainability, digital, international dimension. Funding is available for three categories of projects:
- Category 1 – Small-scale projects: minimum 3 entities from 3 different eligible countries; maximum EU grant amount EUR 200 000 per project; funding rate of maximum 80%.
- Category 2 – Medium-scale projects: minimum 5 entities from 5 different eligible countries; maximum EU grant amount EUR 1 000 000 per project; funding rate of maximum 70%.
- Category 3 – Large-scale projects: minimum 10 entities from 10 different eligible countries; maximum EU grant amount EUR 2 000 000 per project; funding rate of maximum 60%.
Annual sector-specific priorities: For 2022, capacity building activities (such as training, networking or market access activities, and helping the sectors become more resilient) have been identified for the following sectors: music, book and publishing, architecture, cultural heritage, fashion and design, sustainable cultural tourism (see the call document for more information). Indicatively 20% of the budget allocated to this action will be used to support projects addressing these sector-specific activities. Projects should not normally exceed 48 months. The deadline follows a single-stage submission procedure.
