The Creative Europe programme provides support for European Networks that help the cultural and creative sectors operate transnationally and strengthen their competitiveness.

As the IMZ’s mission overlaps in many regards, we are proud to be an Ambassador for the Creative Europe programme, supporting the notion of European and transnational connectivity + cultural exchange. While our activities may be concentrated in Europe, they are certainly not restricted to one continent: We are grateful for the support of the EU, which allows the IMZ to intensify and expand its activities on a global scale.

Creative Europe's Support to European Networks Sub-Programme strengthens the relations between participating networks; the IMZ is very happy to take part and work closer with the other European organisations committed to cultural excellence.
