The objective of this call is to support projects that bring artistic and cultural works co-created by Ukrainian and other Creative Europe cultural organisations to wider audiences through public showcasing and presentation events in Ukraine and across other Creative Europe countries. Funding will be provided to projects featuring co-creations made by partnerships involving at least one organisation from Ukraine and at least one organisation from another Creative Europe country. The projects should maximise the visibility, audience reach, sustainability, and future showcasing potential of these works. Supported projects are expected to include active partner cooperation to adapt showcased works to new audiences, for example by contextualising works, providing translation, involving local artists, experts and communities, conducting parallel programmes, and similar approaches. All creative and cultural sectors are eligible except audiovisual. Project Objectives - Showcase and tour co-creations that explore the theme of resilience in any arts or cultural sector except audiovisual. - Hold a minimum of 6 public presentation events: at least 3 events in each of at least two countries, one of which must be Ukraine. - The presentation events cannot take place in the home city or town of any of the applicant organisations. Overall Strand Budget Total funding available: 950,000 € Grant amount: up to 50,000 €, covering up to 90% of total project costs. The remaining 10% must be covered by the applicants as their own contribution in monetary form (not in-kind) and reflected in their accounting statements. Expected number of grants: 19–25. Rolling Call — Selection Rounds This is a rolling call, open for 16 months, with deadlines every three or four months (see indicative timeline). Applications are reviewed and selected after every round deadline.

All partners have equal rights and joint responsibility for the correctness of data submitted on the platform and in future reporting.
