EU: Call for Cultural Activities to Strengthen Dialogue in Morocco

For the 2010 calls, the Delegation will give priority to projects that aim to strengthen:

* dialogue and exchange between cultures, access to culture of all sectors of the population;
* the promotion of mutual understanding
* the visibility of the cultural aspect of the Euro-Mediterranean partnership.

The call for proposals is open to projects including artistic cultural activities focused on oral communication, visual arts or music, and the promotion of tangible and intangible heritage towards educational or playful activities aimed at a young audience.

Activities should contribute to capacity building both at an artistic and technical level, and from the perspective of administration of the activity through the contribution of European experience.

Any grant awarded under this programme must fall between a minimum of €30,000 and a maximum of €50,000, with an indicative global allocation of €100,000. The programme is funded under the European Neighbourhood and Partnership Instrument (ENPI).

The initial planned duration of an action may not exceed 12 months. The deadline for the submission of applications is 1 September 2010.

An information session on this call for proposals will be held on 5 July 2010 at 5pm in the Delegation of the European Union's premises. Registration is compulsory at delegation-morocco-activites-culturelles@ec.europa.eu
