ABOUT THE PROGRAM

The “EU diploma” is a pan-European educational program arising from the will to foster cultural diversity and transregional and transnational cultural exchanges. Two major goals of the program are to allow cultural managers a better integration of collaborative projects aimed at connecting identity, culture and economy in a European perspective, and to include more EU projects into regional cultural development plans. The program includes theoretical and practical parts, as well as visits to cultural organizations in Zagreb and Rijeka. The part of the program taking place in Zagreb is open to public.
