The Committee on culture is pleased to announce the call for proposals based on the Agenda 21 for culture, aimed at countries in Africa, Ibero-America and the Mediterranean, for cities and local governments which are direct or indirect members of United Cities and Local Governments - UCLG. The involvement in the project by a non-profit organisation or an educational institution in the city or country concerned is highly recommended, and it will be an advantage.

The projects would be based on the Agenda 21 for culture, which is the UCLG’s reference document for local cultural policies. The Agenda 21 for culture is the first document which links culture with sustainable development, diversity, interculturalism and local governance.

The projects will come under at least one of these goals:
Goal 1: Local cultural governance. Improving municipal capacities on local cultural policies and governance.
Goal 2: Education, training and capacity building. Enhancing competencies for municipal cultural management and international cultural cooperation.
Goal 3: International cultural cooperation projects in the arts and heritage.
