CultureEuro Seminars

The Latest EU Funding Programmes

The Cultureuro Seminars provide the latest information on European cultural co-operation & funding opportunities for 2008. Not only will the seminars explore the Culture Programme, but the latest programmes for education, training, young people, the environment, research & development - plus the latest Structural Funds, and possible new opportunities for rural areas from changes to the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) budgets.

What's it all about...
With many new opportunities for cultural co-operation projects and activities in Europe, this is an exciting time for the sector. As the UK's Cultural Contact Point for the EU, EUCLID has the very latest news on the latest programmes for 2008-2009. So, if you are planning a project or collaboration, or if you simply want to know about the EU funding opportunities available, these seminars are for you.

Cultur€uro seminars highlight not only current and future EU funding opportunities but also ways in which cultural organisations can build partnerships, access other European sources of funding and deal with the challenges of the latest EU rules and regulations. The seminars will encompass:

• A brief overview of the EU - knowing how it works can help you know what's in it for you
• A summary of EU funding programmes from 2008-2009 including the latest trans-national and Structural Funds, and summary information on new rural opportunities arising from the revised CAP regulations
• A brief overview of non-EU opportunities, including European trusts and foundations, as well as bursaries, grants and awards
• Key requirements for applying to EU programmes and tips for developing a proposal
• Tips for building partnerships across Europe, including inside advice on where to start and how to foster new relationships.

Please note that these seminars will not, for example, go through the detailed steps involved in completing the application form for any individual EU funding programme.
