ZMINA: Rebuilding supported projects

IZOLYATSIA Foundation, together with Trans Europe Halles (SE) and Malý Berlín (SK), are starting the ZMINA: Rebuilding projects implementation. ZMINA: Rebuilding provides 1.4 million euros to support Ukrainian artists and cultural organizations working alone, with national or non-Ukrainian partners. Selected program participants will be able to create and showcase in Ukraine and abroad works that facilitate, promote or mediate public discourse on the topic of "rebuilding": identity, social norms, communities, relationships, and infrastructure. Intensive capacity-building of Ukrainian artists and cultural organizations, also open to public cultural offices, will support the sub-granting scheme, along with communication and dissemination in Ukraine and internationally.
