Operational study about a Mobility Scheme for artists and culture professionals

Being a pilot mobility scheme i-Portunus is to assess the current State of the Arts in terms of the mobility of artists and culture professionals, focusing on the different target groups. The mobility experts from On the Move delivered an operational study identifying:

• What “mobility” means and hence, the types of mobility that are most in demand and the constraints to mobility for each sector;
• What mobility schemes already exist for each sector, at all levels;
• The gaps to be filled and the added value a European mobility scheme could contribute in filling these gaps, if any, in particular with respect to boosting creativity, exploring markets and developing careers;
• If the potential for European added value is identified, then how the operational framework of the mobility scheme, as well as the communication around this scheme, should be designed so as to ensure that this added value is realised.
