The new CULTURE PROGRAMME (2007-2013), which has replaced the Culture 2000 Programme in 2007, is the main financial tool used by the EU to encourage European culture in its diverse areas.

The central objective of the Programme is to encourage the emergence of European citizenship; the cultural area shared by Europeans, based on a common heritage, is enhanced by the Programme through the development of cooperation projects between cultural operators from different European countries.

Throughout this seven year period, the Culture Programme will provide a total budget of EUR 400 million for quality projects able to encourage innovation and creativity and provide real European added value. Operators from all cultural sectors (except audiovisual) are welcome to take part in this Programme.
