03/06/2024 (Agence Europe) – On Friday 31 May, the European Commission opened a public consultation to gather comments from everyone, including organisations and individuals directly involved in or benefiting from the Creative Europe programme. The results of this consultation, which closes on 6 September, will be used alongside other data to inform the ongoing independent final evaluation of the Creative Europe 2014-20 programme and the interim evaluation of the 2021-27 programme, which must be carried out by 31 December 2024. These elements will provide input for a European Commission report submitted to the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union, and will enable the European Commission to reflect on the programme’s future.
