Nationwide, 93 rural regions are involved. In the coming year, they will each receive funding of 40,000 euros to develop concepts for cultural projects. These include cultural networks, festivals and cultural offices.

The second project phase will begin in mid-2025 and is expected to run until 2030. By then, 30 regions will still be in the running. During this period, each region can receive up to 1.5 million euros in funding. Annual allocations of up to 250,000 euros are planned.
