Programme summary

Programme Concerns

A minimum of € 6.5 million shall be set aside for cultural cooperation and exchange between the Donor States and Romania.

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

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

The programme should also support projects that relate to the documentation of the cultural history of social, ethnic and cultural minorities and groups.

This programme shall contribute to the improvement of the situation for the Roma population and shall contribute towards the target set in section 2 ''Specific concerns'' of this Annex.

Bilateral Ambitions

€ 250,000 shall be allocated to the programme from the fund for bilateral relations. This does not prevent the Joint Committee for Bilateral Funds from allocating additional funds to the programme.
