EUNIC (European Union National Institutes for Culture) is a partnership of national institutions for culture, engaged beyond their national borders and operating with a degree of autonomy from their governments. In a step forward for European cooperation, 29 EU national institutes for culture from 26 countries have decided to work for the first time, 50 years after the Signing of the Rome Treaties, in a strategic and operational partnership to promote European culture.
The purpose of EUNIC is to create effective partnerships and networks between the participating organisations, to improve and promote cultural diversity and understanding between European societies, and to strengthen international dialogue and co-operation with countries outside Europe. The EUNIC membership is intended to grow in time to include national institutes for culture from all the member states.
EUNIC operates at two levels:
 |
 |
|
a partnership at a top level between the heads or Directors General of the institutions |
|
|
|
partnerships being formed in capitals across Europe |
The Sarajevo Cluster was formed on 22 February 2008 and it consists of the following cultural institutes (institutions) of EU Member States represented in Sarajevo:
The cluster representative is Nicolas Moll of Centre André Malraux Bosnia and Herzegovina.
