Deadline: 21 September 2023
Apply for the Short-Term Network Funding Programme to explore new solutions and create networks for co-operation between artists and cultural practitioners in the Nordic and Baltic region.
Network funding is part of the Nordic-Baltic Mobility Programme for Culture, which strengthens artistic and cultural cooperation in the Nordic region and the Baltic countries. The programme focuses on increasing the exchange of knowledge, contacts and interest in Nordic and Baltic art and culture. The Nordic-Baltic Mobility Programme comprises three forms of funding: Mobility funding, Network funding and Funding for artist residencies.
The Nordic-Baltic Dimension
In this context, the Nordic-Baltic dimension means that the network:
- promotes and increases contact, communication and activities between the Nordic and/or Baltic countries;
- strengthens the Nordic-Baltic presence in the cultural scene of the Nordic and Baltic region;
- strengthens understanding of the similarities and differences between the Nordic and Baltic countries; and
- improves awareness of Nordic and Baltic artists and the visibility of their work.
Funding Information
- For networks that will work together for up to one year, you can get funding of up to EUR 20,000. The contribution from Nordic Culture Point can make up a maximum of 70% of the project’s budget.
Who is eligible to apply?
- Funding is available for professional artists and cultural practitioners (such as curators, producers, literary translators, cultural editors or researchers) in all forms of art and culture. Funding is available to individuals, groups, organisations or institutions.
- To apply for network funding, you must be a resident of the Nordic Region (Denmark, Finland, the Faroe Islands, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, or Åland) or the Baltic countries (Estonia, Latvia, or Lithuania), but you do not need to be a Nordic or Baltic citizen.
- The network must consist of partners from:
- at least three Nordic and/or Baltic countries (Denmark, Estonia, Finland, the Faroe Islands, Greenland, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, Sweden, and Åland.)
- The network may cover additional partners who do not operate in the Nordic or Baltic region.
- You can also apply funding from other pan-Nordic institutions and organisations, such as the Nordic Culture Fund, for the same project. Total funding from the Nordic-Baltic Mobility Programme and other pan-Nordic organisations must not exceed 85% of the project’s budget.
