The French Team – Expertise France and the Institut français – is pleased to announce the launch of several Calls for Projects aimed at performing arts and music professionals in Sub-Saharan Africa and the 27 European Union Member States.
These calls are part of the Connect and Create program, funded by the European Union, coordinated by the Goethe-Institut, and implemented by Expertise France in partnership with the Institut français.
Between 2025 and 2026, several Calls for Projects will be launched to support co-creation, co-production, dissemination, and capacity building for professionals in the performing arts sector across our two continents.
Three calls have already been launched in September 2025, focusing on Creative Tandems, Professional Mobility, and Performing Arts Circulation.
