International Exchanges and Travel Grants Film

The Swedish Arts Grants Committee provides grants for international exchanges and travel to support film artists' opportunities to create, develop and nurture contacts abroad. This grant supports two main types of activities: international exchanges and travels abroad, and international exchanges in Sweden. For travel abroad, the grant covers various forms of exchange including guest performances, screenings at festivals, tours, residencies, work stays, workshops, or active participation in events, as well as self-initiated travel for professional development such as research, attending courses or workshops, visiting festivals or conferences, or meeting with collaborators. For exchanges in Sweden, the grant supports inviting foreign artists to Sweden for collaborative work or knowledge sharing through symposia, seminars, workshops, or artistic projects. The grants typically cover travel and living expenses, and in some cases transportation and participation fees, but do not include production costs, fees, or salaries.
