Culture Helps: collaboration grants for integration through culture
These are grants for projects for Ukrainian refugees, created in cooperation with partners from Europe. A series of open lectures on mental health, weekly painting workshops, a good neighborliness festival — you will have up to EUR 40,000 for a project that will help Ukrainians feel at home in a new place.
Choose partners among EU organisations and 13 other countries of the world. If you don't have a partner yet, join the online meetings where you can find partners and consult about the application.
You will need to implement the project by 31 March, 2024.
