The Co-funding Award 2025 is subdivided by strands:

• Strand 1:Co-funding Award for Creative Europe Cooperation Projects commencing in 2025. The primary purpose of Strand 1 of this award is to enable Irish organisations that have secured funding, either as Lead Co-ordinator or Partner, for artistic activities under the Cooperation Projects strands of the Creative Europe Programme 2021–27 to apply for co-funding. Funding will be considered to support Irish arts activities that align with the objectives and priorities of this award.
  
  Applications from non-arts organisations will be eligible only where an Irish arts organisation has been identified as a participant in the project and where Arts Council support will be used for the benefit of the arts organisation’s Irish art activities. Applications for a Co-funding Award for Cooperation Projects must be made in the same calendar year in which an offer of funding is received from the EACEA.

• Strand 2: Co-funding Award for Partner Meetings in preparation for Creative Europe Cooperation Project applications. The primary purpose of this strand is to enable Irish organisations to apply for support towards meetings with potential European partners in preparation for applications to the Cooperation Projects strand of the Creative Europe Programme 2021-2027.
