In Aragon, a total of three projects have been approved across the provinces of Zaragoza and Huesca, with €1.618 million in grants. The 2% Cultural Programme stems from the obligation of the Ministry of Housing and Urban Agenda, the Ministry of Transport and Sustainable Mobility, and the Ministry of Culture to allocate 2% of their public works contract budgets to the conservation or enhancement of Spanish Historic Heritage or the promotion of artistic creativity.
