The Prince Claus Fund welcomes project proposals for cultural initiatives related to culture in defiance.
The Prince Claus Fund believes that culture has the power to
stimulate change. Arts and cultural expression are powerful engines for
nonviolent resistance and open dialogue, where artists and critical
thinkers are important witnesses in the conflicts of todayand can raise
awareness about the need for development and peace.
The Culture in Defiance call
is aimed at projects that strive for positive change. Their impact lies
in creating opportunities of freedom of speech and thought. It is
focused on promoting art and culture that seek to re-imagine
possibilities, by creating a space for dialogue, critical thinking and
impact in their societies. For projects situated in areas subjected due
to censorship, conflict or oppression.
The Prince Claus Fund supports through this call projects that strive
for transformation of different realities. It seeks creative and
innovative ideas that promote equality and opportunity.
The proposed call fits with the Fund’s theme Culture and Conflict.
The Prince Claus Fund supports projects with an average grant of 15.000 Euros.
