Objetivos clave de la medida:

Creativity is a strategic and still underexploited resource for Europe. The main objective of EU action is to support cultural and creative sectors, which are knowledge and labour intensive, at the forefront of innovation and at the origin of spill-overs to other industries. They have shown that they can achieve above-average growth and create quality jobs - including for young people - while contributing to strengthening cultural diversity, social links and active citizenship. Facing worldwide competition, they are confronted with challenges that must be addressed at European level such as the lack of skills, finance, innovation and coordination.

 

EU policy support for cultural and creative sectors highlights the role of "Culture as a catalyst for innovation";
