Objective

The action European Cooperation Projects supports projects involving organisations in the cultural and creative sectors of all sizes, including micro-organisations and small-sized organisations, and from different countries to undertake sectoral or cross-sectoral activities.

European Cooperation Projects are open to all the cultural and creative sectors. However, considering that this action aims to pursue the objectives of the Culture strand of the Programme, projects involving exclusively organisations from the audio-visual sector and projects of an exclusive audiovisual content are not targeted for funding under it.

Proposals are expected to present a clear cross-border cooperation dimension as this is at the core of the European Cooperation Projects

• Objective 1 - Transnational creation and circulation
• Objective 2 – Innovation

In addition to choosing one of the objectives referred to above, projects must address at least one (and no more than two) of the following priorities:

1. Audience
2. Social inclusion
3. Sustainability
4. Digital
5. International dimension.
6. Annual priority

Expected impact

The action European Cooperation Projects fosters transnational cooperation and exchanges between organisations active in the culture field, to increase the European dimension of creation and circulation of European artistic content as well as to encourage the development, experimentation, dissemination or application of new and innovative practices.

This action is expected to support at least 130 projects.
