Through these EU projects, Arts Council Malta is strengthening its connection with other international artistic organisations, allowing for more networking, collaboration and increased cultural co-operation.

ACM is interested to work with other entities and organisations on EU-funded projects focused on one or several of the following areas of interest:

• Projects that promote interdisciplinary and contemporary artistic creation including links with technology/ cultural heritage/ environment;

• Projects that promote cultural development (training/capacity-building) with third countries especially the Mediterranean region;

• Projects that promote intercultural dialogue and bring communities together through culture;

• Projects inspired by diversity of cultural expressions, and that encourage cultural exchange and the integration in society on a social, cultural, political and economic level;

• Projects that support the entrepreneurial and innovation potential of the CCS;

• Projects that increase cultural participation amongst young audiences;

• Projects that promote access to culture through digital means;

• Projects that promote the inclusion of refugees and migrants;

• Projects that provide networking opportunities for festivals and public cultural organisations since we serve as a national umbrella for all public cultural organisations (excl. museums).
