CREATIVE EUROPE

Creative Europe is the European Commission’s framework programme for support to the culture and media sectors. Following on from the previous Culture Programme and MEDIA programmes, Creative Europe, with a budget of €1.46 billion (9% higher than its predecessors), will support:

• Culture sector initiatives, such as those promoting cross-border cooperation, platforms, networking, and literary translation;
• Audiovisual sector initiatives, such as those promoting the development, distribution, or access to audiovisual works;
• A cross-sectoral strand, including a Guarantee Facility and transnational policy cooperation.

The programme consists of two sub-programmes; the Culture sub-programme to promote the culture sector, and theMEDIA sub-programme to support the audiovisual sector. Results are published on the Creative Europe Dissemination Platform.
