Goodbye 2024, Welcome 2025
As we gear up for another successful year ahead of us, let's take a moment to celebrate our achievements and look back at 2024 - an extraordinary year of collaboration, creativity and impact.
As we head into 2025, here are just a few selected highlights and key resources from the last 12 months in case you missed them:
Two General Assemblies
These meetings brought our members together live and in person to shape the direction of our global network. Catch up on key takeaways and outcomes from our most recent GAs in Bucharest and Brussels. If you're involved in one of the 140 EUNIC clusters, make sure to check out our General Assembly key take aways for clusters report.
Three regional cluster meetings
From New York to Almaty to Warsaw, our cluster colleagues came together in 2024 to exchange ideas and strengthen collaboration efforts as a network. Hear insights from colleagues present at the European Regional Cluster Seminar in Warsaw here.
Groundbreaking cultural projects around the globe
In 2024, more than 20 EUNIC-funded projects brought cultural relations to life, from celebrating queer communities in Bolivia with European Spaces of Culture to creative eco-mapping in Sri Lanka through the Cluster Fund. Hear from members participating in the 2024 Cluster Fund jury here. Explore the broad range of projects supported by the EUNIC Cluster Fund and the European Spaces of Culture programme.
Supporting Ukraine through Culture of Solidarity Fund
The second edition of the EUNIC Ukraine Fund saw 10 cultural initiatives selected and rolled out throughout 2024, embedding Ukrainian arts and culture into programme activities elsewhere in Europe.
Facilitating the exchange of knowledge and best practices
The EUNIC Mobility Scheme enabled 14 visits last year, with even more to come in 2025. Through our insightful member-led Knowledge Sharing Workshops, we unpicked the impact the fast evolving global geopolitics are having on international culture relations and explored decolonising Ukrainian cultural heritage. Catch up on our latest workshop here.
A brand-new Sustainability Toolkit
Our bespoke resources support EUNIC colleagues in embedding climate action into their cultural relations work. Explore this package of tools and practical guidance here.
Here’s to another impactful year of connecting, collaborating, and championing international cultural relations in 2025!
