No more than 60% of the total eligible expenditure or the programme shall be available for infrastructure (hard measures).

The possibility of pre-defining further project(s) could be explored when developing the concept note.

The programme shall focus on the role that culture and cultural heritage play in local and regional development including emphasis on employment, cultural entrepreneurship and vocational training.

The Programme shall include activities and initiatives in arts and culture that explicitly encourage the inclusion of ethnic and national minorities.
