The collaboration agreement between EIDD and Cumulus, the International Association of University and Colleges of Art, Design and Media, was signed after being approved by the Cumulus Executive Board and the EIDD Board of Directors in their meetings in Saint-Etienne 20-23 November 2008.

The partnership has been drawn up to provide a further framework for possible joint initiatives supporting the goals of both organisations, and for enabling collaborative actions making efficient use of the complementary strenghts of both organisations. 

Cumulus is a non-profit organisation of 140 universities and colleges of art, design and media. Cumulus is the only global association to serve art and design education and research. It is a forum for partnership and transfer of knowledge and best practices through conferences, workshops, projects among members and with industry, business and other partners.
