Que finance cet appel ?
Scope
The topic, part of the MEDIA strand of the Creative Europe Programme, funds pan-European and innovative projects that build on an evidence-based analysis of audience needs, with a particular focus on young audiences. Projects should increase interest in, knowledge of and access to European films, including film heritage programmes and other audiovisual works, extend pan-European audience reach, and use existing European works for audience development, film education and film literacy.
Activities
- Audience-oriented events.
- Innovative or cross-border film education initiatives.
- Cooperation between film institutions and existing online platforms is encouraged, as is reaching audiences in areas with poorly developed cinema infrastructure.
Applications should present a thorough, evidence-based analysis of audience or market needs, and must set out quantifiable targets and present strategies for environmental sustainability, gender balance, inclusion, diversity and representativeness.
Expected impact
- Greater audience interest in and knowledge of European films, film heritage and other audiovisual works, including videogames and immersive content.
- Stronger pan-European cooperation on innovative audience development and film education, especially through new digital tools.
- Wider pan-European impact and audience outreach, and film education projects across European and non-European territories.
