Møteplasser og kulturarenaer for romanifolket/taterne

This grant program provides funding for pilot projects and the development of infrastructure and content that preserves, develops, and makes visible the culture, language, and history of the Romani people/Travellers. The program supports two types of projects: preparatory projects (forprosjekter) for planning organizational structure, operations, and content activities; and development projects for establishing physical meeting places and developing regular activities. Preparatory projects can receive up to 300,000 NOK and should be completed within one year. Development grants support infrastructure such as new construction, renovation of existing facilities, administrative costs, and content including events, exhibitions, advisory services, and language courses. Development projects should be completed within two years. The program aims to establish cultural arenas and meeting places with long-term sustainability, requiring applicants to demonstrate plans for future financing and operations beyond the establishment period.
