Find out more about the project we have written and cooperated on that received funding from this program EDGE - Ultraperipheral Music Festivals.
Information about the program
Projects must be designed and implemented by a consortium made up of at least three entities from three participating countries (see list here) and have a maximum duration of 4 years.
Project size
This time, the call for proposals is open for all three scales:
-
Small (at least three organizations from three different countries; up to €200,000 per project / 80% co-financing);
-
Medium (from five organizations from five different countries; up to 1 million euros per project / 70% co-financing);
-
Large (at least 10 organizations from ten different countries; up to 2 million euros per project / 60% co-financing).
Priorities
It has also been defined that the projects must respond to the 'global' priorities defined by the European Commission, namely environmental sustainability, inclusion and gender equality, digital transition and international relations - a difference from the previous system which indicated specific priorities in each call.
European objectives
Projects must choose to contribute to one of two objectives: transnational creation and circulation - which seeks to strengthen the transnational creation and circulation of European works and artists; or innovation - if the aim of the project is to increase the capacity of the European cultural and creative sectors to nurture talent, innovate, prosper and generate jobs and growth.
Who can apply?
This competition is open to public and private legal entities, whether profit-making or not; and individual entrepreneurs who are active in the cultural and creative sector and have their legal headquarters in one of the 40 countries participating in the program.
