Network funding contributes to building and expanding networks between artists and culture practitioners, and to encouraging to working together across borders.
Short-term network funding may be granted for projects lasting up to one year. Maximum funding is 25 000 euro, and granted support may constitute up to 70 percent of the total costs of the project.
Short-term network funding may be granted either to individuals, institutions or organisations, as long as they reside in a Nordic or Baltic country. It is required that the project involves artists or culture practitioners from at least three countries/autonomous areas. The three Baltic States participate in the programme with equal footing as the Nordic countries and the autonomous areas.
Next deadline for short-term network funding is on 3 September 2009. Applications are to be submitted electronically via Nordic Culture Point’s webpage, where you also find information on selection criteria and the application procedure.
The Nordic-Baltic Mobility Programme also grants funding for study or research visits, for network projects of up to three years and for artists residences. Read more about the Mobility programme.
