artists' contacts funding program

With the Artists' Contacts programme, the ifa supports the international cooperation of cultural actors. Artists and cultural practitioners from Germany and from transformation or developing countries receive valuable support for projects in contemporary visual arts, architecture, photography, media art and design. Applicants thereby receive the chance to network internationally and to advance the intercultural discourse between Germany and the global South.

There are two deadlines for funding rounds in 2024! Application deadlines:

• 31 January 2024 for projects from June 2024
• 15 August 2024 for projects from January 2025

The date of postmark is applicable. Applications sent after the filing deadline will not be considered. All applicants will receive written confirmation or rejection within about three months of the submission of their application. Recourse to legal action is out of question. If funding is granted to the applicant, ifa will reimburse all applicable and recoverable costs upon receiving the original invoices.
