It's helpful to bring the argument "this isn't new" and "it's been done" and "all the cool kids are doing it". In Germany, we have several examples of ministries and bodies having adopted open licenses. It's patchy, however.
The UNESCO Commission recommends, uses and promotes materials under free licenses, of course. The ECs policy on licensing is helpful in all the talks that we had: creativecommons.org https://creativecommons.org/2019/04/02/european-commission-adopts-cc-by-and-cc0-for-sharing-information/
ZDF (public service broadcaster), which also clearly explains the terms of use on its landing page https://www.zdf.de/dokumentation/terra-x/terra-x-creative-commons-cc-100.htm... Federal Agency for Civic Education, e.g. https://www.bpb.de/mediathek/246349/bildungsmaterialien-bereitstellen-und-en....
The Federal Ministry of Economics provides selected graphics under CC BY, as well as all texts on the website (in principle), as noted in the imprint https://www.bmwi.de/Redaktion/DE/Artikel/Service/impressum.html. The National Action Plan https://www.open-government-deutschland.de/resource/blob/1591050/1705008/6d69cdffffe5d33c6fb97a88049fe300/abschluss-bericht-2019-nap1-data.pdf?download=1 (Final Report of the Federal Government) Open Government appears factually under CC BY 4.0. The German Aerospace Center has been publishing images under CC BY since 2012 Bucerius Law School puts entire lectures and info videos online under free licenses. The Federal Ministry of Education and Research has dedicated an entire campaign to the topic of Creative Commons and Open Access https://www.bildung-forschung.digital/de/open-access-initiativen-2680.html . The OER strategy announced in the coalition agreement has just been funded and will be launched before the end of this legislative term. For more than ten years now, the federal government and its subordinate agencies have been using Creative Commons licenses of various types, see this document https://dipbt.bundestag.de/dip21/btd/17/093/1709374.pdf from 2012 The Federal Agency for Cartography and Geodesy uses a CC BY-like license, so called "Deutschlandlizenz https://www.govdata.de/dl-de/by-2-0". It's like CC, just not international, so worse. The BBKvirtuell series of the Federal Office of Civil Protection u. Disaster Relief is completely licensed under Creative Commons as far as I can see (CC BY 3.0) The Federal Office for Radiation Protection has already marked videos as Creative Commons on YouTube and is currently checking to what extent other materials are eligible. The Federal Center for Health Education decided on free licenses for the infection protection materials in May, and these are now being successively updated (in the wake of the WMF-WHO Cooperation https://www.who.int/news/item/22-10-2020-the-world-health-organization-and-wikimedia-foundation-expand-access-to-trusted-information-about-covid-19-on-wikipedia )
Good luck!

Hi all
I'm exploring working with an EU member state to help them adopt open licenses for their content, especially educational and cultural content from their ministry of culture, museums etc.
Having worked at UNESCO for 6 years I'm pretty familiar with the OER Recommendation and how that encourages states to adopt open licenses. (Any thoughts welcome on this also).
My question is are there any recommendations, targets, policies, laws, funding opportunities etc for EU member states which encourage them to adopt open licenses for government content or government funded content? Any suggestions on who to ask this question to?
Thanks very much
