The 2023 EU Global Cultural Relations Programme for Creative Professionals

The Global Cultural Relations Programme (GCRP), the Cultural Relations Platform’s flagship training programme, is a special opportunity that gets together practitioners from around the globe to produce meaningful connections and discuss cross-cultural collaborations. The GCRP is informing a change in focus for the upcoming edition of GCRP. The past editions were tailored for cultural and creative professionals. For the 2023 edition of GCRP, the Cultural Relations Platform opens the programme also to participants operating in the field of Climate Change and Environmental Issues.
