The grant can be used to create events that open up new meanings and support Ukrainian artists, educators, journalists, or entrepreneurs. Possible projects include conferences on the decolonisation of Ukrainian art, business courses for veterans, retreats for teachers from frontline regions, investigative journalism workshops, or other ideas that contribute to rethinking and promoting Ukrainian identity.
The programme participants will receive not only funding but also expert support, including consultations, design assistance, photography and video shooting, and rental of premises and equipment. The programme also opens up opportunities for new contacts in the field of cultural management and access to further grants.
You can apply until 31 July on the Diia.Business portal. Both organisations and private initiatives from Ukraine can apply.
