The Prince Claus Fund and the Goethe-Institut are issuing a new Call for Proposals to support cultural and artistic initiatives tackling pressing environmental issues around the world.

Deadline: 14 June 2019.  

This call for proposals is aimed at Africa, Latin America, Asia, the Caribbean and Eastern Europe. It seeks to support initiatives that enable local communities as well as global institutions to engage with the threatening changes of nature and our environment through contemporary artistic and cultural interventions. They encourages ground-breaking cultural initiatives by individual artists, creative professionals as well as cultural organizations; especially initiatives that express how the arts and new media can propose solutions to environmental issues and create alternatives that support sustainability and foster cooperation and an exchange of new ideas globally.

The Prince Claus Fund and the Goethe-Institut are specifically looking to support initiatives that: 

• Employ new media to re-imagine a more sustainable world, and provide space for different perspectives within the sustainability discussion
• Promote the inclusion of women and minority groups.
• Support concrete cultural initiatives that enable local impact while encouraging a global exchange on culture of sustainability and climate justice.
• Encourage out of the box initiatives by artists and cultural practitioners looking to re-imagine conventional approaches to environmental sustainability and climate justice.
• Support the development of artistic and creative initiatives that reinforce and rethink traditional knowledge and methods as a means to promote sustainability and climate justice.
• Stimulate and inspire communities to use sustainable materials and resources within their own contexts and practice.

With this call for proposals the Prince Claus Fund and the Goethe-Institut would like to invite artists and cultural practitioners to envision a future for our planet that is more environmentally friendly, and to propose their cultural/artistic responses to how they can jointly get there. They would like to challenge all interested in this call to create innovative concepts that link artistic cultural engagement to environmental sustainability and climate justice.
