GENERAL INFO
- Balkan Incentive Fund for Culture grants up to a maximum of Euro 30,000. The average project grant is Euro 10,000 - 15,000
- The Balkan Incentive Fund for Culture does not support more than 80% of the project's total budget. Since the application process is highly competitive, you will maximize your chances of being awarded a grant by presenting a project which will be supported by a balanced and mixed range of funders
- All applicants and project partner organisations are required to create a profile of their organisation on rhiz.eu, the ECF-initiated intercultural internet community for all those active in arts and culture
- Support will not be awarded to projects that will take place before grants assessments have been finalized. Assessment decisions will usually be finalized within 8 - 10 weeks of the deadlines advertised on the website
- We do not normally support the same organizations more than once in a period of 18 months. However, if your second project reflects significant developments in its form or content and represents an essential follow-up to work already realised, you should contact the grants department for guidance. Please note that we never support recurring projects if content, form and project funders remain unchanged.
