Deadline: 15-Nov-2024
The Nordic Culture Foundation is inviting applications for its Upstart Program to support projects with concrete ambitions to develop cooperation across the Nordic countries.
Funding Information
- You can apply for up to DKK 25,000. There is no requirement for own co-financing.
- Start-up is typically sought for travel and meeting expenses in connection with development meetings in the Nordics. A maximum of 50% of the requested amount can be budgeted for project participants’ fees.
Eligibility Criteria
- The program supports projects with concrete ambitions to develop cooperation across the Nordic countries.
- At least two actors based in two different Nordic countries must have confirmed their participation in the Start-up project, and their roles must be described in the application.
- If there are only actors from two Nordic countries participating in the project, one of the project’s specific goals must be to expand Nordic participation.
- The application must clearly show how and which other actors from which countries the project group wishes to involve in the long term.
Ineligibility Criteria
- Be aware that Opstart does not support:
- Projects outside the artistic or cultural field, such as sporting events, business development, technology development, social purposes, journalism and social science.
- School trips or individual research trips.
- Participation of individuals and groups in events and arrangements.
- Ready-made projects that can apply for project support. If you are in the process of applying for project support, you must not apply for start-up at the same time. In that case, include the development phase in your project grant application.
