Cultural investment program

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cultural investment program is the name for state investment programs in the field of culture launched by several states in the Federal Republic of Germany ( Berlin , Brandenburg , Saxony-Anhalt , Hesse ) . Investments in museums, theaters and other cultural institutions are mostly funded. Occasionally, other projects that are to be viewed as individual measures are also assigned this term.

Programs of the individual countries

Berlin

The Berlin Cultural Investment Program (KIP) was set up on January 1, 2007 on the basis of the operational program for the use of the European Regional Development Fund ERDF in Berlin 2007-2013. The program has its own funding guidelines, on the basis of which in the period from 2007 to In 2013 (payment by 2015) a total of more than € 26 million will be available. This means that individual projects by public and private applicants can be supported up to 50% of the costs. The other half of the cost must be met from other government or private sources. Investment projects that develop the tourist attraction of a cultural heritage, such as a museum collection, are eligible for funding. It must be about so-called "image-building potentials" of the cultural heritage that are of importance to tourism. Pure monument preservation projects are not eligible.

execution

The governing mayor of Berlin and the Berlin Senate Chancellery are responsible for implementing the cultural investment program . The cultural department, which has been located there since 2006, answers questions and issues application forms. The cultural investment program of the state of Berlin did not actually start until mid-2008 because the operational program of the ERDF in Berlin was only approved by the European Commission in November 2007. Funding examples are

  • the establishment of an open air exhibition by the Berlin Wall Foundation in Bernauer Strasse
  • the expansion of the Nazi Forced Labor Documentation Center in Berlin-Schöneweide
  • the expansion of buildings on the Spandau Citadel for a museum about Berlin monuments
  • the technical renewal in the theater on Schiffbauerdamm
  • the expansion of the Science Center SPEKTRUM in the German Museum of Technology Berlin

  • Expansion measures in the international cultural center ufaFabrik in Tempelhof
  • Expansion of the exhibition area for the vehicle collection of the German Museum of Technology
  • securing the Berlin Ceramic Museum

  • the preparation of a former freight railway building for the exhibition "the network" of the German Museum of Technology
  • Renewal measures in the Zeiss large planetarium
  • the renovation of venues in the Volksbühne Berlin
  • the modernization of the orchestra podiums in the Konzerthaus Berlin
  • the preparation of the artist areas in the Kammerspiele of the German theater .

For each project, quantified goals must be set, such as the number of tourist visitors expected after the project has ended and the size of the expanded show or service areas.

The previous program in Berlin in the years 2004 - 2008 was called "Promotion of the tourist infrastructure". Examples of the funding at that time are among others

Brandenburg

The Brandenburg (municipal) cultural investment program (KKIP) was relaunched for the second time in 2007. The first generation of programs ran from 1996 to 1999, the second from 2000 to 2006. Funds from the European Regional Development Fund ( ERDF ), which are available to Brandenburg as a so-called Objective 1 or Objective "Convergence" region, are used for the programs . The first KKIP was launched in 1996 and financed from the ERDF.

KKIP 2007 - 2013

The funding objectives and modalities of the 2nd edition of the KKIP are regulated in the funding principles of the Ministry for Science, Research and Culture (MWFK) of the State of Brandenburg from April 2008. The basic aim of the program is to better exploit the tourist potential of cultural offers in order to achieve more employment and growth in the tourism-related sectors such as B. the transportation and hospitality industries. At the same time, the funded projects are intended to generally improve the settlement conditions for the commercial sector by making the location more attractive.

Cities, municipalities and districts as well as legal entities under private law are eligible to apply, provided they do not pursue commercial purposes. The grant is generally 50% of the eligible costs, which does not include art and exhibition objects and the costs of purchasing the property. Applications can be submitted to the MWFK Brandenburg in Potsdam . The approval and control of the projects is handled by the Investment Bank of the State of Brandenburg.

KKIP 2000 - 2006

According to an announcement by the Ministry of Science, Research and Culture of the State of Brandenburg, approx. € 22.8 million ERDF funds from the program are used in 12 different projects. Including co-financing from state, federal and other sources, the use of funds amounted to more than € 49 million.
