Publishing field

Support measures in the field of publishing have been fully reviewed and are now compatible with the sector-specific approach.

The translation of books is encouraged by 2-year contracts and 3-year framework contracts.

As a novelty, publishers will be given the opportunity to form consortia among themselves so that even smaller publishers can complete the number of books needed to receive support. Advertising of books is also important in the projects, and bookstores can also be involved in this. This approach supports the entire ecosystem of the publishing industry.

Platforms and networks

Platforms and networks have proven to be success stories of the Creative Europe programme and have made a major contribution to the development of participants' knowledge and skills.

Only two calls for proposals are planned for the networks during the funding period, the first of which, a round of 3-year grant agreements, should be announced quickly in order to avoid disruptions in their activities. A second call for applications is planned to be announced in 2023. It offers 4-year grant agreements until the end of the programme's funding period.

The first call for applications for platforms offering 4-year grant agreements will be announced in the first half of 2021. In 2024, a second call will be launched, offering three-year grant agreements until the end of the programme.
