These are grants for collaborative projects by the Ukrainian and the UK teams that offer innovative responses to climate change. You can get up to GBP 50,000 for a project that will be part of the cultural programme in the build up to the United Nations Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP26), which the UK is hosting in November 2021.
 
The project should bring together art, science and digital technology and focus on mass participation and engagement, longer term movements and campaigns. Main activity can take place any time during the year 2021, although the ideas built up to COP26 are particularly welcomed.
