The Cultural Relations Platform has announced the participants in the Global Cultural Relations Programme (GCRP) 2022. The 40 cultural changemakers and innovators selected for the Global Cultural Relations Programme 2022 were chosen from over 2,000 applications to take part in the Cultural Relations Platform’s flagship training programme for creative professionals from around the world. They span 40 nationalities, including from the Western Balkans, and numerous sectors – including the performing arts, music, audio visual, cultural heritage and the visual arts.

As part of the GCRP programme, from 10-13 May the participants will have an opportunity to network, share experiences and ideas, build their skills in international cultural relations and develop a collaborative international cultural project.

The Cultural Relations Platform is an EU-funded project that connects cultural practitioners worldwide for dialogue, exchange and co-operation. It also provides expertise to the European Union in the field of international cultural relations.
