ZMINA:Resilience. Support for International Showcasing of co-creation projects

IZOLYATSIA Foundation (UA) and Malý Berlín (SK) together with Trans Europe Halles (SE) announce the rolling open call for cultural and arts organisations within the ZMINA:Resilience project, strand “Support for international showcasing of co-creation projects”.

The objective of this call is to support projects that bring artistic and cultural works co-created by Ukrainian and other Creative Europe cultural organisations to wider audiences through public showcasing and presentation events in Ukraine and across other Creative Europe countries.

Funding will be provided to projects featuring co-creations made by partnerships involving at least one organisation from Ukraine and at least one organisation from another Creative Europe country. The projects should maximise the visibility, audience reach, sustainability, and future showcasing potential of these works.

Supported projects are expected to include active partner cooperation to adapt showcased works to new audiences, for example by contextualising works, providing translation, involving local artists, experts and communities, conducting parallel programmes, and similar approaches.

All creative and cultural sectors are eligible except audiovisual.
