Call for new EU Cooperation projects on Culture

The call for proposals for European Cooperation Projects is published. It deals with three categories – small-scale cooperation projects, large-scale cooperation projects and projects related to the 2018 European Year of Cultural Heritage. A small-scale project would have for example five partners and a total budget of 330,000 EUR. The own invest is 133,000 EUR or roughly 26,660 EUR per partner over a period of maximum four years = 6,665 EUR per partner per year.
