“We are an independent organisation which helps the arts contribute to a strong, united and diverse Europe built on shared cultural values.
We have a special commitment to the new generation of Europeans. Many of our activities are geared towards bringing out the creativity in young people of all backgrounds.
We support high-quality artistic activities and cultural cooperation across different countries, borders and boundaries. We advocate for culture, helping to create better conditions for the arts and campaigning to change political attitudes to culture at EU level. And we also help provide better access to cultural information.
Our commitment is to the whole of Europe and its neighbouring regions, though naturally we target those places where we believe support is most needed. We focus on making sure that the many diverse creative voices of Europe are heard and make an impact” (Retrieved on August 12, 2008 from http://www.eurocult.org/about-us/).
