ARTS CUTS AT THE EU AS WELL ??
The EU is in the process of reviewing its budget for the period 2013-2020. Budget cuts are likely. The culture budget amounted to 400 million for the period 2007-2013. There is an additional 700 million Euros to support European films. Some Structural Funds also benefit the cultural sector (around Euro 3 bn of the 350 Bn EU structural funds budget). Overall less than 0.1% of the overall EU budget is spent on culture – yet innovation and creativity are a priority sector of the EU 2020 Strategy so is the Digital Agenda. Why should the EU spend on culture? KEA European Affairds have come up with 15 reasons: a few arguments for cultural activists and lobbyists. You can comment on www.keablog.com.
