This new call of the EUROMED Heritage Programme will provide a newer opportunity to preserve the Mediterranean culture while promoting synergies between cultures. You may prepare new projects with other European and Mediterranean partners.
The projects you may prepare may specifically focus on the following areas.
- Contribute awareness-rising in the Mediterranean partner countries, promote the access to knowledge of cultural heritage and encourage the effective management of the cultural heritage
- Encourage the social and economic repercussions at regional and local levels
- Provide technical assistance to Mediterranean authorities to improve the legislative and institutional framework
Promotion of cultural heritage includes different areas from tourism to the protection of the craftsmen in the Mediterranean region. Therefore, the projects may involve various types of activities such as strategic information, education and awareness raising campaigns on cultural heritage, educational activities and promotion of cultural productions, documentation of tangible and non-tangible cultural heritage, cultural tourism initiatives and management plans involving the public sector into the projects.
Since the projects need to focus on Mediterranean cultural heritage, the majority of project activities must take place in at least two of the Mediterranean partner countries and territories with project duration of 24-48 months. The funding for successful projects will be minimum 500.000 and maximum 1.500.000 €.
