Description
1) Objective
Rhe African Culture Fund (ACF) is launching a fifth call for proposals specifically dedicated to cultural organizations, within the framework of the Solidarity Fund for Artists and Cultural Organizations in Africa (SOFACO). The main aim of this initiative is to provide financial support to African cultural organizations affected by the devastating consequences of COVID-19. This new call for proposals aims to encourage restructuring and strengthen the resilience of cultural organizations at this critical time. The funding allocated will enable them to continue their creative activities, develop new projects and maintain an income in an uncertain economic climate. In addition, these initiatives will help preserve the socio-economic structure of Africa’s already fragile cultural sector.
In these times of crisis, it is crucial to recognize the vital role played by culture in the resilience of societies. The African Culture Fund is committed to supporting African cultural organizations in their restructuring process, and to promoting the continent’s cultural vitality, even under the most complex challenges.
2) Eligibility
African cultural organizations are invited to submit innovative, high-impact proposals that reflect the diversity and cultural richness of the continent. The selection process will be transparent and rigorous, ensuring a fair distribution of resources to the most relevant and promising projects.
3) Location
Actions must take place in Africa.
4) Budget
The maximum budget granted by ACF for any application under this call for proposals is 5,000 (Five thousand) Euros per cultural organization.
