BalkanKult Foundation is established
Posted: 01-02-2005


BalkanKult Foundation launched

The first regional cultural foundation in the Balkans area has been
established. BalkanKult Foundation continues the work started and
realized by the regional association BalkanKult, which was established
in 1999, in Sarajevo.

The goals of the foundation are development of creative industries in
the region, support for cultural diversity, development of regional
cultural market, support for mobility of people, ideas and works.

The BalkanKult Foundation Fund has been established for the support of
cultural production and cultural life in the Balkan region, as well as
connecting the region with other parts of Europe and the world.

The Balkan Cultural Foundation will give much more than support of
concrete projects. One of the main strategic objectives is the
establishment of long-term contacts and creation of opportunities for
developing cultural life in a common, joint artistic or wider cultural
space. The main aim is to provide, maintain and ensure access to a
favourable environment for cultural diversity and the building of
“cultural bridges”. It is thus necessary that all projects that we will
support contain within their framework elements of “good practice”, i.e.
are strong examples that create a so-called “snowball effect”.

Goals of the Fund are as follows:
• Support of cultural diversity
• Development of creative industries
• Enlargement of cultural market
• Exchange of information in the field of culture
• Promotion of international cultural cooperation

For the accomplishment of its goals, the Fund will realize projects and
in other ways support:
• Research-development activities with the view of the development of
Balkan cultural cooperation and cultural production
• Organization of expert meetings, lectures, seminars, discussions and
visits, as well as cultural and economic manifestations
• Mobility of people, ideas and works
• Issuing publications, scientific magazines
• Film, Video, CD and DVD recording and production
