The final round of the International Opportunities Fund 2021-22 is now open. The deadline for applications to this round is Wednesday 3 November 2021, 5:00pm GMT.
About the International Opportunities Fund
The purpose of the fund is:
- To support the development of relationships, collaborations and networks between Wales’ creative professionals and arts organisations and international partners.
- To share experiences and skills through the arts within an international context.
- To raise the profile of Wales and its connections through the arts internationally.
As we continue our partnership with Welsh Government on the Year of Wales in Germany 2021, we particularly welcome applications to the fund for developing further links with Germany.
There are currently a number of international travel restrictions and uncertainties. So for the time being the fund will primarily support the development of international relationships, collaborations and networks using digital platforms and tools.
Physical travel can be included alongside digital activity but you must have contingency plans in place should this not be possible.
