Europe for Citizens

The aim of the programme for the period 2014-2020 is:

• To contribute to citizens' understanding of the EU, its history and diversity
• To foster European citizenship and to improve conditions for civic and democratic participation at EU level
• To raise awareness of remembrance, common history and values
• To encourage democratic participation of citizens at EU level, by developing citizens' understanding of the EU policy making-process and, by promoting opportunities for societal and intercultural engagement and volunteering at EU level

The programme has two main priorities:

• Strand 1: European Remembrance

• Strand 2: Democratic engagement and civic participation

Although not specific for the arts, they can participate in "Europe for Citizens" as long as the projects conform to the program requirements.

Only non-profit organizations and individuals can participate in this programme.
