Flanders Arts Institute engages in international exchange and connection programmes to cultivate long-term, sustainable and meaningful relationships, as well as reciprocal international collaborations. With this call we concentrate on the Southeastern European region with a focus on arts and democracy.
The main goal is to learn from the realities of working in a similar, but different socio-political context, with special attention to political and societal unrest. From June 2026 to September 2027, Flanders Arts Institute will support artists and arts professionals who wish to immerse themselves in the South-Eastern European arts sector.
Together with Kooperativa we’re starting this mobility programme, aiming to deepen our understanding of each other’s sector and practices, to build bridges of exchange and solidarity, and to share the gained experiences with our own arts sectors.
