Second edition – January 2018 — GUIDE TO FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE INTERNATIONAL MOBILITY OF ARTISTS AND CULTURE PROFESSIONALS – AFRICA

Guide to funding opportunities for the international mobility of artists This Cultural Mobility Funding Guide presents a mapping of and culture FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES for INTERNATIONAL CULTU- professionals RAL MOBILITY, focused on the – AFRICA African continent. The main objective of this cultural mobility funding guide is to provi- de an overview of the funding bodies and programmes that support the international mobility of artists and cultural operators from Africa and travelling to Africa. It also aims to provide input for funders and policy makers on how to fill the existing gaps in funding for interna- tional cultural exchange.

This guide – whose first edition was supported by Korea Arts Ma- nagement Service1 and whose current edition is supported by the British Council – is modelled on the Guides to funding opportuni- ties for the international mobility of artists and culture professionals in , , the Arab Region and the USA.2 You can refer to the methodology of these guides in the document “How to read the cultural mobility funding guides,” 3 included in the European and Asian guides, which were the first of the series.

In the Africa guide you will find funding opportunities relevant to most artistic and cultural disciplines, classified by types of funding organisations. The list includes only regular funding opportunities, whose terms and application procedures are accessible online, and that cover travel costs (partially or completely). PAGE 5

It draws on extensive online research as well as on previously completed studies: namely, AMA’s studies on mobility and touring in East Africa (2011, 2012) and Central Africa (2015), and The Cultural Mobility Funding Guide – Focus on the 13 Arab Countries (by the Arab Education Forum with OTM with the support of Korea Arts Management Service and the programme Med- Culture).4

While the guide aims to provide a comprehensive over- view of funding opportunities for mobility to/from Africa, it is by no means exhaustive for the following reasons: - Funding schemes are regularly subject to change, which may render some information outdated. This is particularly the case for international/regional funding schemes affected by budget cuts, policy changes etc.; - Some potential funding opportunities could not be identified due to the lack of consistent information available online; - Most African countries lack national regular funding schemes supporting artists’ mobility, which makes the information highly challenging to identify. GUIDE TO FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE INTERNATIONAL MOBILITY OF ARTISTS AND CULTURE PROFESSIONALS – AFRICA

The information is organised according to the fol- lowing structure: 1) Organisations and funding bodies based in Africa (where is one of the coun- tries most represented in terms of funding sche- mes) 2) International organisations with an African focus (where French-speaking countries/”Fran- cophone” countries and the MENA region are the most covered regions in terms of cultural mobility funding support) 3) Global South-focused organisations (where Africa is one of the regions covered, usually with Latin America and Asia) 4) Bilateral and multi-lateral cooperation sche- mes (in particular with countries such as and but also regional entities like the European Union) 5) International prizes, residencies and other support schemes (this part has been added to open the scope of opportunities for African ar- tists and cultural professionals, as funding pos- sibilities specifically targeting them are rather limited) 6) Resources (this section offers tips and advice for African artists and cultural professionals seeking mobility funding and identifies informa- tion platforms relevant for the African cultural sector as well as additional funding organisa- tions that do not meet the selection criteria re- levant for the cultural mobility funding guide.4 PAGE 7

We aim to update this guide on a regular basis through further research and input from the field. Your feedback is therefore crucial. You can send your comments, suggestions and cor- rections to: [email protected]

A French version of the Africa Cultural Mobility Funding guide is also available thanks to the support of the Ministry of Cul- ture -France.

GUIDE TO FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE INTERNATIONAL MOBILITY OF ARTISTS AND CULTURE PROFESSIONALS – AFRICA Art Moves Africa Art Moves Africa (AMA) is an international not-for-profit organisation that aims to facili- tate cultural and artistic exchanges within the African continent. AMA was created to offer travel grants to artists, arts professionals and cultural operators living and working in Africa to travel within the African continent in order to engage in the exchange of information, the enhancement of skills, the development of informal networks, and the pursuit of coope- ration.

AMA is also active as a research body and as a purveyor of information on cultural mobility opportunities for African cultural professio- nals. It conducts regular studies on cultural mobility and touring in the various African regions and shares mobility opportunities The British through its Facebook page. Council AMA is funded by the Norwegian Ministry of The British Council is the ’s Foreign Affairs and Stichting Doen. international organisation for cultural re- lations and educational opportunities.

We do this by making a positive contribution to the UK and the countries we work with – changing lives by creating oppor- tunities, building connections and engende- ring trust.

Our Africa arts strategy is focused on working to develop stronger African creative sectors that are better connected to the UK. We do this through sharing the best of arts and culture in the UK and Africa; building audiences for the arts through the development of new networks; and communica- ting the work of the creative sectors by enabling artists to be better connected with their various communities.

We work through our partners in the creative sec- tors of the UK and Africa to stimulate new ways of engaging with each other and the mobility of Africa -based artists is key to making better connections and developing work. The British Council is de- lighted to be supporting the creation of this helpful funding guide.

4. Contact embassies and consulates. They may run their own support schemes and/or provide advice for specific projects.

5. Contact festivals/event promoters directly. They may provide assistance with funding and/or travel logistics.

6. Contact art centres and residencies direc- tly. Some may offer support with funding research. See list below for art centres that have been cited by artists as funding provi- ders in the past. Also listed are art centres that belong to international networks (Triangle Network, Arts Collaboratory) and that may provide funding/other forms of support (administrative for instance) for pro- jects and residencies.

7. Check billboards at local art centres. Fun- ding opportunities are often advertised lo- cally through art hubs. See the list below.
