Cultural Deal for Europe video

Join us in our call to the European Union to place culture at the heart of its political vision and ambition for years to come.

Why?
Because in a polarised world,
culture unites us and brings us together,
culture is how we exchange ideas,
culture ignites citizens’ hearts and fuels their minds,
culture represents what we want for the future of our societies.

Without culture, the very future of Europe is under threat. Culture is not only a part of the European project: it is its beating heart.

But culture hardly features in discussions on the future of our continent.

That is why we call for a Cultural Deal for Europe: for culture to be included in the EU’s funding programmes, sustainable development strategies, relations with the rest of the world, vision for our future.

We have created a union of states and institutions. We still need to craft a union of values and people.

Can we also count on you to help us place culture at the heart of Europe? Read more and endorse the campaign!

The Cultural Deal for Europe is jointly developed by Culture Action Europe, the European Cultural Foundation, and Europa Nostra (representing the European Heritage Alliance).
