Programmes
The ECF's core focus on diversity is an integral part of our funding programmes. We support research, cooperation, networking and the exchange of experiences through innovation and good practice. Our programmes support individuals working in the cultural field including artists, cultural practitioners, journalists, curators, arts managers. We have three main programme areas:
Mobility stands for the ability to move freely and easily cross borders to gain inspiration and stimulate innovative creative connections. Artists and others in the cultural sector need to meet their international peers, exchange views, cooperate, influence and learn from each other. It is the life-blood of cultural cooperation. | more about this
Two needs are tackled by the ECF's media programme:
Nurturing young people's creativity and creating a shared space for journalists to debate the European issues of the day. | more about this
The Arts - shaping and being shaped by society. Dealing constructively with difference.
The ECF has long been committed to exploring the social dimension of art. In March 2005, it launched a new 3-year project, ALMOSTREAL. This focuses on cultural practice and the various manifestations of ‘cultural difference'.
