The European Cultural Foundation (ECF) is looking for a Communications Coordinator for their Amsterdam office, to begin between 15 March and 1 April 2024.

The new edition of the Culture of Solidarity Fund welcomes European transnational collaborative initiatives that address the theme of just transition and environmental sustainability from a specific cultural angle. The call is open to organisations based in Europe and actively engaged in the cultural, creative, or allied sectors.

European Cultural Foundation have announced a brand new commissioning grant as part of their European Pavilion programme. They invite legal entities from all cultural and creative fields in Europe and neighbouring countries to submit an ambitious curatorial proposal that will ensure the visibility, accessibility and positioning of the European Pavilion as a major European cultural event in 2024.

The latest edition of the Culture of Solidarity Fund will support collaborative actions between organisations that are based and/or active in Eastern Germany or in European regions affected by deindustrialisation, population decline, social dissolution, failing public infrastructure, and ecological crises. Activities must take place between 1 November 2021 - 31 October 2022.

The European Cultural Foundation is seeking a Head of Communications to work at its offices in Amsterdam. The successful candidate will lead, manage and supervise a team of four to five. ECF offer a full-time contract for 1 year, with a view to extension.

The European Cultural Foundation invites you to apply for the second round of the European Culture of Solidarity Fund.

The fund is open to individuals, collectives and organisations from all sectors and civil society at large with initiatives and ideas. Deadline: 14 July 2020.

The Fund - set up in partnership with other foundations - is looking to support imaginative cultural initiatives - big or small - that reinforce solidarity and the notion of Europe as a shared public space in response to the current crisis and its aftershocks.

They can cover material costs, office costs, online co-working and communication tools, production costs, but also expert fees and staff costs. Deadline: 27 April 2020.
