[01] EU film support programme's first global steps trigger interest in
Asia and South America
Cooperation with the European film industry is in strong demand around the
globe. The results of the first call for projects of a new EU initiative,
the MEDIA International Preparatory Action, show a lot of interest from
audiovisual professionals around the world in working with Europe's film
and audiovisual sector. The EU will provide nearly €2 million of funding
for 18 projects involving partners from Canada, Latin America, India, China,
South Korea, Japan, Morocco, Bosnia, Turkey and Georgia. The projects
include joint training of film professionals, reciprocal promotion of films
and cooperation between cinema networks. This could set the stage for a
broader EU film cooperation programme called MEDIA MUNDUS, coming in 2011.
[02] Health Check and future perspectives of the CAP: challenges for
agriculture: a day of scientific dialogue
The European Commission will tomorrow host a seminar on the Health Check of
the Common Agricultural Policy in Brussels. The CAP Health Check, currently
under discussion, will ensure that the CAP is fit for the challenges of the
21st century. At the seminar, which will form part of the 12th Congress of
the European Association of Agricultural Economists, experts from the
Commission and from academia will talk about the economic context of the
Health Check as well as its possible implications for production, trade,
the environment and sustainability as a whole. For more information on the
seminar, see at: <a href="http://ec.europa.eu/agriculture/events/eaae/2008_en.htm">http://ec.europa.eu/agriculture/events/eaae/2008_en.htm
