Fellowships 2024

Creative Impact in Practice

The “CIRCE Fellowships – Creative Impact in Practice” programme supports pilot projects from the European cultural and creative economies that transfer research and knowledge into creative practice. Building on the potential of the cultural and creative economies, the fellows will test new ways of addressing the challenges of our time, with the aim of creating synergies and identifying opportunities for cooperation that make the results usable in the long term.

Ten fellows have been selected to work on their pilot projects over a period of five months. The fellowship includes both financial support and a mentoring programme. Regular on-site and digital meetings focus on exchanging ideas and networking with other CIRCE participants.

The Fellows’ pilot projects focus on Communities & Care, Sustainability & Environment, and Democracy & Participation. They promote inclusion and social justice, respond to the climate crisis and strengthen democratic principles.
