CreaSus Project Pilot offers Sustainability Mentoring
CreaSus, a project funded by the Creative Europe programme, is looking for organisations from the cultural and creative sectors across the European Union interested in sustainability. Join the Info Session on 4th March to find out more.
CreaSus project (2022 - 2026) aims to guide cultural and creative industries towards adapting practices that benefit society and the environment, ensuring they are profitable and sustainable for future generations. This project features Irish partner, WestBIC, the Official EU Business and Innovation Centre for Ireland's Border, Midlands and Western Region.
CreaSus Pilot Programme
The CreaSus pilot programme offers organisations a strategic opportunity to integrate sustainability into their business practices, addressing social, environmental, and governance aspects while enhancing profitability. Through a comprehensive self-assessment process, participants can evaluate their performance, organise sustainability data, and use it to create added value in their offerings. Based on the assessment results, tailored actions for improvement are proposed, supported by funding schemes and business models designed to facilitate sustainable transformation.
Cultural and creative organisations participating in the piloting will be asked to use and provide feedback on:
- Sustainability self-assessment tool, which will allow organisations to evaluate their performance in the three sustainability areas: environmental, social, and governance.
- Sustainable transformation actions which will offer a proposals to improve sustainability performance.
- Funding schemes toolkit and three business models, which will facilitate an operational approach to their sustainable transformation process.
- Participating organisations will receive support through a capacity building programme which will support them in the use of the different resources. The piloting process will foster connections and networking opportunities between similar organizations across Europe and will provide visibility of the participating entities.
