TOCC – Capacity Building Sustainable cultural organisations

Europe and Italy are investing considerable human and financial resources to improve the entire ecosystem in which the cultural and creative sectors operate, to encourage cross-sectoral, networking and cooperation projects aimed at social, environmental and economic sustainability.

CCIs can and must contribute to the green transition and climate action in every aspect of their activity, adopting solutions and models that are in line with the principles of sustainable development, reorienting organisational, production and fruition strategies and procedures, also to guide public behaviour.

Within this framework, Fondazione Ecosistemi (lead partner), Fondazione Promo PA , together with 4Form and A SUD have set up the ECO – Ecologicamente Culturali network to implement two capacity building projects for the ecological transition of cultural and creative organisations.

ECO offers two training courses funded by the European Union within the framework of the NGEU – Next Generation EU Project through the funds allocated to the PNRR – National Recovery and Resilience Plan.
