Cross-Sectoral Strand

CE_INFO_HOR_CROSS.jpg

The Creative Europe Programme comprises three strands:

  • the CULTURE Strand, which covers all sectors of culture and creation (with the exception of the audiovisual and cinematographic sectors);

  • the MEDIA Strand, which covers the audiovisual and cinematographic sectors;

  • the CROSS-SECTORAL Strand, which promotes collaboration between the creative sectors and covers the media sector.

Armenia has partially joined the Cross-Sectoral Strand of the Creative Europe Programme by hosting the Creative Europe Desk in Armenia.

In addition to the MEDIA and CULTURE Strands, Creative Europe includes a Cross-Sectoral Strand.  As specified in the Regulation, the Cross-sectoral Strand aims to “explore the potential of collaboration between the different cultural and creative sectors and address the common challenges they face. A common cross-sectoral approach offers advantages in terms of knowledge transfer and administrative efficiencies”.

The Cross-Sectoral Strand mainly addresses the following actions: 

  • Transnational political cooperation: promoting knowledge of the Programme and supporting the transferability of results, 

  • Creative Innovation Labs: promoting innovative approaches to the creation, distribution and promotion of content, as well as access to it, in the cultural and creative sectors, 

  • Media: supporting media literacy, quality journalism, media freedom and pluralism, 

  • Funding of Creative Europe Desks (in Portugal: Creative Europe Information Centre). 

Consult the different funding lines for information on objectives, eligibility criteria and evaluation criteria.
