About the Creative Europe programme

The Creative Europe programme is the European Commission's flagship programme to support the culture and audiovisual sectors. For the 2021-2027 period it has a budget of € 2.44 billion, which will be used to invest in actions that reinforce cultural diversity and respond to the needs and challenges of the cultural and creative sectors.

The main objectives of the programme are to

safeguard, develop and promote European cultural and linguistic diversity and heritage
increase the competitiveness and economic potential of the cultural and creative sectors, in particular the audiovisual sector

The Creative Europe programme is divided in 3 strands.

Culture strand: supporting and promoting Europe's culture sector.
MEDIA strand: actions encouraging the competitiveness, innovation and sustainability of the European audiovisual sector.
Cross Sector strand: initiatives promoting innovative actions and collaboration across the audiovisual and cultural sectors.

CULTURE strand

The Culture strand of the Creative Europe programme supports a wide range of cultural and creative sectors including

architecture
cultural heritage
design
literature and publishing
music
performing arts

The Culture strand encourages cooperation and exchanges among cultural organisations and artists within Europe and beyond. Creative Europe aims to

foster artistic creation and innovation
support the promotion and the distribution of European content across Europe and beyond
help artists find creation and performance opportunities across borders,
stimulate the digital and environmental transition of the European Culture and Creative Sectors

The CULTURE strand consists of the following actions:

European cooperation projects

The Creative Europe programme supports transnational cooperation projects involving organisations in the cultural and creative sectors from different countries taking part in the programme. It covers the EU and beyond. Through this funding, Creative Europe aims to improve access to European cultural and creative works and to promote innovation and creativity.

European platforms

The Creative Europe programme provides support to platforms for cultural operators which promote emerging artists and stimulate a truly European programming of cultural and artistic work.

European networks

The Europe Union cofinances 37 pan-European Networks of culture and creative organisations, under the Creative Europe programme (2021-2027). These networks support cultural organisations and professionals who contribute to strengthening the competitiveness and diversity of the European cultural and creative sectors.

Circulation of European literary works and literary translations

Creative Europe supports initiatives on translating and promoting European literary works.

The aim is to widen the transnational circulation and diversity of European literary works by encouraging translation and promotion of books in lesser-used languages and to help European literary works to reach new audiences within the EU and beyond, and to strengthen the competitiveness of the book sector by encouraging cooperation within the book value chain.

Culture Moves Europe

Culture Moves Europe provides mobility grants for artists and cultural professionals in all Creative Europe countries. It covers the sectors of architecture, cultural heritage, design and fashion design, literary translation, music, performing arts and visual arts.

The scheme consists of two action lines:

individual mobility (for individuals and groups of up to five persons) Find out more about the Individual mobility action here
