EU PRIZE FOR CULTURAL HERITAGE / EUROPA NOSTRA AWARDS – Apply now!
The European Union Prize for Cultural Heritage / Europa Nostra Awards is Europe’s most prestigious prize in the heritage field. Every year, it honours the most outstanding heritage achievements from all over Europe. The deadline for submission of proposals is 1 October 2016.
The aim of the awards is to promote best practices in the conservation of tangible and intangible cultural heritage, to stimulate the trans-frontier exchanges of knowledge and experience throughout Europe, to enhance public awareness and appreciation of Europe's cultural heritage, and to encourage further excellent initiatives through the power of example.
Outstanding heritage achievements will be awarded in the following categories:
- Conservation
- Research
- Dedicated service by individuals or organisations
- Education, training and awareness-raising
Criteria for the assessment of entries include excellence in the work executed and preliminary research conducted, as well as respect for artistic, cultural and social value, setting, authenticity and integrity. Special attention will also be paid to sustainability, interpretation and presentation, educational work, funding and management, social responsibility, and audience development. Entries can be on a scale ranging from small to large, local to international, and should display a standard of work considered outstanding in a European context.
The prize consists of two award levels; a Grand Prix of €10,000 (awarded to up to seven entries), and an award, presented to up to 30 entries.
