Il prossimo 27 aprile dalle 11 alle 13 abbiamo organizzato presso la sede nazionale dell’AICCRE (Piazza Trevi 86, a Roma) un incontro con l’assistenza tecnica del Creative Europe Desk Italia – Coordinato dal Ministero dei Beni e della Attività Culturali e del Turismo. Obiettivo dell’evento è sia di presentare il Programma Europa Creativa che di fornire l’opportunità di fare domande in merito alle prossime call del Sottoprogramma Cultura. La partecipazione è gratuita per tutti (ex alllievi e non). Europa creativa è il Programma quadro nato con l’intento di rafforzare i settori culturali e creativi in Europa per il periodo 2014-2020, attraverso quattro Obiettivi generali: progetti di cooperazione transnazionale tra organizzazioni culturali e creative all’interno e al di fuori dell’UE e la promozione della mobilità delle opere e degli operatori (artisti in primis) del settore culturale e creativo; traduzione e promozione di opere letterarie attraverso i mercati dell’UE e sostegno alla diversità culturale e linguistica nell’UE e in tutti i paesi partecipanti al Sottoprogramma Cultura; network, ovvero scambio di informazioni e competenze al fine di operare a livello transnazionale e internazionale e di adattarsi ai cambiamenti, promuovere la diversità culturale e linguistica (minimo 15 organizzazioni UE già esistenti, approccio business to business); piattaforme di operatori culturali che promuovono gli artisti emergenti e che stimolano una programmazione essenzialmente europea di opere culturali e artistiche. A differenza dei network, le piattaforme prevedono un approccio business to consumers: i riflettori della call sono puntati sulla visibilità degli artisti e dei creatori, soprattutto quelli emergenti, che rappresentano la cultura europea.
