Through this call for proposals, the Prince Claus Fund supports one-year initiatives for and by young people that inspire them to contribute to their societies in ways that make them more inclusive and accepting of differences. The programme is designed to create safe spaces for young women and men where they can explore the possibilities of different stories or alternative narratives that allow them to imagine different ways of being. This call focused on enabling young people (ages 15-30)* from eligible countries in Africa and the Middle East to explore, define and represent their identities through arts and culture.
