Creative Europe programme 2021-2027

Creative Europe 2021-2027 is the continuation of the Creative Europe programme, the only European Union programme directly targeting cultural and audiovisual activities. The EU competence in this domain is to help Member States address common challenges in these sectors, respect cultural and linguistic diversity, and safeguard cultural heritage across the EU. Its funding of only 0.14 % of the EU budget limits its scope, mainly to supporting networks, platforms, cooperation or innovation projects, and the development of common data and studies. The European Parliament is expected to vote at second reading during its May plenary session on the agreed text resulting from interinstitutional negotiations.
