CoHERE Living Lab: Mainstreaming Heritage Policy

General | 21 September 2018

We find ourselves in a moment of fragmentation and division in Europe that can be hard to reconcile with aspirations for valorising a shared European heritage. In this situation, how should heritage be at the “centre of the policies and priorities”?

ENCC events for the coming season and onwards

General | 10 July 2018

Our meetings and our red thread topic for the year.

Welcome, new members!

The ENCC is happy to introduce five new members in 2018.

Shortcut Europe 2018

General | 16 May 2018

Our April conference gathered participants from 10 countries in Turnhout, Belgium. Some highlights.

'We all understand, in philosophical and cultural terms, that we live in Postmodern times. But what I want to suggest to you is that Modernism was the last phase of the Enlightenment. And we are now leaving the Enlightenment. Because the Enlightenment's ideas, including its invention of Fine Art and its purpose in society, was shaped by a world that no longer exists.'

Programme

Shortcut Europe

Looking at next EU budget proposal

General | 03 May 2018

On May 2nd, the EU Commission presented its proposal for the 2021-2027 budget. Main news for us at first glance: the doubling of Erasmus+ and an increase for Creative Europe. Analysis.

The ENCC is happy to see Creative Europe maintained as a stand-alone programme, and its budget increased from 1.4 billion Euros (for 2014-2020) to 1.8 billion euros. However, it remains to be seen which strands will be covered by that budget, and what financial allocations will be made to culture in the other EU budget lines.
