“I ride my horses to the petitioners — they feed the horses, they feed me, they feed the coachman, and they pay!” This is how Ukrainian writer and dramaturgist Ivan Karpenko-Karyy reflected on the issue of corruption in his 19th-century play Martyn Borulya.
Today, as in Karpenko-Karyy’s time, culture mirrors social problems and can play a crucial role in reshaping public attitudes.
The EU Anti-Corruption Initiative announces a national call for cultural organizations and artists.
We are looking for creative ideas that can challenge perspectives on corruption through exhibitions, performances, YouTube projects, podcasts, discussions, public events, and other formats to promote integrity and effective fighting and preventing corruption.
