EUNIC Egypt

EUNIC – European Union National Institutes for Culture in Egypt is the European network of 15 organisations engaging in cultural relations. EUNIC Egypt works though the Euro-Egyptian Cultural Programme to support the Egyptian cultural and artistic scene since 2019. Our philosophy is to support artists through providing technical and financial capacity building to put startups on track, support the

already ongoing project’s sustainability, and support organisations in developing projects and initiatives. The EUNIC seeks to create liberal space for the art and cultural sector in Egypt where countries and organisations share knowledge and expertise in order to introduce different cultures and bring them together. The project aims at supporting the cultural and creative sector in Egypt through four main pillars:
1. Open Call
Through this component, the programme provides administrative and financial support to small and medium projects. Art Residency Program
This component is based on selecting artists from Egypt and Europe to work together on creating an artistic/creative/cultural product that integrates Egyptian and European cultures. The program hosts selected artists in Egypt for a period of three months to work on creating their cultural, artistic or creative product.
3. Supporting Film, Music, and Performing Arts Festivals
The program supports many independent art festivals in Egypt with the aim of providing the organizers with an opportunity to create free spaces for artistic participation and the opportunity for the public to learn about different cultures in the fields of cinema, music and performing arts.
4. Training and Capacity Building
This component aims to raise the efficiency of workers in the cultural and creative field on cultural and financial management, and technical and artistic skills.
