Considering that the aim of the Council of Europe is to achieve greater unity between its
members in order, in particular, to safeguard and promote the ideals and principles which form their
common heritage;
Considering that freedom of creation and freedom of expression constitute fundamental ele-
ments of these principles;
Considering that fostering the cultural diversity of the various European countries is one of the
aims of the European Cultural Convention;
Having regard to the UNESCO Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity
of Cultural Expressions (Paris, 20 October 2005), which recognises cultural diversity as a defining
characteristic of humanity and strives to strengthen the creation, production, dissemination, distri-
bution and enjoyment of cultural expressions;
Considering that cinematographic co -production, an instrument of creation and expression of
cultural diversity on a global scale, should be reinforced;
Aware that film is an important means of cultural and artistic expression with an essential role
in upholding the freedom of expression, diversity and creativity, as well as democratic citizenship;
Determined to develop these principles and recalling the recommendations of the Committee
of Ministers to member States on the cinema and the audiovisual field, and particularly Recom-
mendation Rec(86)3 on the promotion of audiovisual production in Europe and Recommendation
CM/Rec(2009)7 on national film policies and the diversity of cultural expressions;
Acknowledging that Resolution Res(88)15 setting up a European Support Fund for the

Considering the technological, economic and financial evolution of the film industry since the
opening for signature of the European Convention on Cinematographic Co -production (ETS No. 147)
in 1992;

the continued relevance and effectiveness of this framework for cinematographic co -production;
