As part of the measures being undertaken by the Parliamentary Secretariat for Local Government for the development of sustainable localities, a fund of €750,000 is allocated to assist Local Authorities (Regions, Local Councils and Administrative Committees) in their programme of cultural events held between January 2018 and December 2020. 02
CULTURE FUND CALL FOR PROPOSALS The three-year scheme will provide a stable support for Local Authorities to plan ahead, grow and develop a programme of cultural events. The general objectives of the scheme are: 1. To assist in the achievement of positive socio-economic impacts and promotion of cultural initiatives; 2. To acknowledge and enhance the ways of life of different communities, promote cultural diversity and integration, ensuring that projects are not in conflict with their localities’ geographical, social and cultural character; 3. To stimulate a collaborative approach between Local Authorities and other organisations, both public and non-governmental, while encouraging synergies and the sharing of expertise and resources. 4. Where possible to elaborate and enhance past cultural activities so as to ensure creativity and innovation of ideas. The national priorities that are being addressed through this Scheme are: 1. To develop the islands’ cultural programming on a local level, by way of projects that are quality-driven, citizen-oriented, and regionally coordinated and promoted; 2. To tackle tourism seasonality by providing year-round interesting, participatory and accessible cultural events targeting mostly off-peak or shoulder periods; 3. To acknowledge and promote awareness of the factors contributing to the evolving identities of local communities; 4. To introduce a regional approach to cultural programming, maximising opportunities for collaboration at civic society level and creating new assets and innovative approaches for the social and cultural empowerment of communities; 5. To prioritise inclusivity, diversity and multiculturalism, including integration in cultural programming at local level, by ensuring the widest possible engagement of audiences of all ages and social backgrounds; and 6. To promote cultural diversity and inclusion: events can be specifically on this theme or have this concept mainstreamed accordingly. 03
