Consequently, the European Commission has drawn up an action plan to revive the sector, using multiple approaches through the <strong>Creative Europe 2021-2027 programme<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The programme allocated a budget of \u20ac 2.44 billion, almost double the budget of \u20ac 1.47 billion of the previous program for 2014-2020.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The programme has <strong>two main objectives<\/strong>:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">the protection, development, and promotion of European heritage, linguistic and cultural diversity;<\/span><\/li>\n<li>boosting the competitiveness and economic potential of cultural and creative activities, especially in the audiovisual area.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Compared to the previous one, this year&#8217;s programme will contain <strong>new features<\/strong>:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">greater emphasis on transnational innovation and inclusion (e.g., the inclusion of socially marginalized groups);<\/span><\/li>\n<li>easier access to funds thanks to higher co-financing rates;<\/li>\n<li>cooperation at the European level to support greater competitiveness in the audiovisual sector;<\/li>\n<li>a more efficient professional mobility scheme for artists;<\/li>\n<li>implementation of actions aimed at encouraging specific creative sectors such as architecture, music, and cultural heritage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The programme will follow the trend of inclusiveness, environmental sustainability and digital innovation.

It will aim at fostering cooperation among artists and organizations in and out of Europe.

Its priorities are divided into four specific clusters around which action will be implemented: <strong>content<\/strong> (promote and raise recognition of European values), <strong>business<\/strong> (scale up according to digital transformation and encourage cross-border collaboration), <strong>audience<\/strong> (increase audience on multiple platforms), and <strong>policy support<\/strong> (promote a unified EU approach siding with European values of diversity, equality, etc.).<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">CROSS-SECTORAL STRAND<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-12644 alignnone lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/mozartcultures.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/header-internationalrel-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/mozartcultures.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/header-internationalrel-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mozartcultures.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/header-internationalrel-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mozartcultures.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/header-internationalrel.jpg 850w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 300px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 300\/169;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The third strand promotes cooperation among different sectors that, through <strong>collective effort<\/strong>, can face structural and technological challenges and innovative solutions. The tools created to achieve this goal are policy cooperation and the Creative Innovation Lab.
