Deadline: 27-May-22
Creative New Zealand is inviting proposals to one of their multi-year investment programmes, Toi Uru Kahikatea, for 2023 – 2025 funding.
The Kahikatea investment programme provides support to arts organisations, groups or individuals so they can contribute to building stronger arts communities, artists and organisations, and/or facilitate greater public engagement in the arts.
Organisations seeking Kahikatea funding will need to show how their proposed programme of work delivers to at least one of three features of Creative New Zealand’s Investment Strategy:
- diversity and reach
- dynamic arts
- a resilient arts sector.
Priorities
Each Proposal must meet all of the following eligibility requirements. Proposals which fail to meet all requirements will be eliminated from further consideration. Respondents who are unable to meet all eligibility requirements need to understand that they will not benefit from submitting a proposal to the Kahikatea programme but should consider whether they might be eligible for other Creative New Zealand funding. Respondents must:
- Be currently receiving funding through the Kahikatea programme or have been invited to submit a proposal as a new Respondent;
- Comply with Creative New Zealand’s Funding Guidelines; and
- Submit all required information by the deadline
Funding Information
- Creative New Zealand’s investment in the Kahikatea and Tōtara programmes for the current financial year (FY2021-22) is $32,790,570.
- They have provisioned for an 8% increase across both programmes in FY2022-23 to respond to opportunities aligned with the Investment Strategy.
- They may not expend the full budget this year to provide for increases in future years, with the amount allocated dependent on the mix of proposals in this 2022 funding round.
Outcomes
- The range of Investment Feature Outcomes has been expanded for 2022 so that organizations in the Kahikatea programme can select from the same range of outcomes as Tōtara organisations.
- These changes have been made to reflect recent trends and observations from the sector, and to recognise the diverse outcomes that have been achieved through the Kahikatea programme over the past three years. New Investment Feature Outcomes for the Kahikatea programme have been indicated with an asterisk.
- Organisations making proposals to the Kahikatea programme must deliver to at least one Investment Feature Outcome.
Eligibility Criteria
- Each Proposal must meet all of the following eligibility requirements.
- Proposals which fail to meet all requirements will be eliminated from further consideration.
- Respondents who are unable to meet all eligibility requirements need to understand that they will not benefit from submitting a proposal to the Kahikatea programme but should consider whether they might be eligible for other Creative New Zealand funding.
