UNESCO-ASCHBERG Bursaries for Artists

Aims to promote the professional growth of young artists in all art disciplines by providing opportunities for further training or work residency abroad.

The Programme offers residencies to young artists (between 25 and 35 years old) worldwide. It shares many objectives of the Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions (2005), which advocates cultural exchanges and highlights creativity and the need for artists to enrich their experience through contact with other cultures.
