Picture from Creative Europe CULTURE strand, European Networks

Seventy networks and organisations from across the Cultural and Creative Sectors and Industries (CCSIs) have addressed a joint letter (https://cultureactioneurope NULL.org/files/2023/09/Letter-of-Concern-Creative-Europe-2024-Budget-Cuts NULL.pdf) to the EU Member States and the Council of the EU regarding the proposed cuts by 40 million EUR to the Creative Europe budget 2024.
The co-signatories very much hope that the Council will reconsider the current budget cuts and rather contribute to further strengthen the Creative Europe programme for the year 2024 and in the future, in line with the position expressed by the CULT Committee of the European Parliament, which requested an increase by €43 million for next year.
