Winning projects from the last edition.

The 'Emergents' aid programme for creativity, innovation and socio-cultural inclusion projects in the city of Valencia has announced the 8 winners and 4 runners-up in its fifth call for entries. The proposals awarded by this initiative promoted by the University of Valencia, through the Vice-rectorate of Culture and Sport and the City Council of Valencia, from the Department of Youth, will be distributed a total of 30,000 euros in aid for their development.

‘Emergents' has the collaboration of the Youth Department of the Valencia City Council and is aimed at supporting socio-cultural interventions organized by entities or groups that are carried out in the municipality of Valencia. These social and cultural initiatives will each receive a maximum of 4,000 euros to develop activities related to the fields of performing arts, education, urban planning and / or visual arts. On this occasion, and given the state of alarm, the resolution of the award of prizes has been made by video conference.

The 8 winning proposals stand out both for their diversity of activities and for their location in different parts of the city.
