This is an opportunity to receive up to EUR 20,000 for a cultural project that you will implement together with a public organisation from Germany. You can hold an exhibition of modern Ukrainian photography, organise a residency for Ukrainian and German artists, or make a street exhibition about our country's history. You must present your project in one of Germany's villages or small towns by the end of June 2026.

The competition is implemented by the Ukrainian Institute in Germany and Insha Osvita and funded by the Federal Foreign Office of the Federal Republic of Germany. This is one of thousands of EU opportunities for Ukraine.
