Roberto Cimetta Fund Mobility Grants
About this opportunity
The Roberto Cimetta Fund supports the international mobility of artists and cultural professionals through targeted grant calls focused on the Euro-Mediterranean region, the Middle East and Africa. Recent calls include the Gil Mendo Mobility Grant (Portugal and non-EU Mediterranean countries) and the Emergency Mobility Grants 2027, which offers up to EUR 600 for transport, visa fees and a daily allowance for professional training, creation, residencies, dissemination and networking.
Application tips
Each call has its own eligible countries and rules, so read the call text carefully. Emergency call applications need a completed form, an up-to-date CV and an invitation letter or agreement from your host; beginners can present a project in progress instead of a body of work. Applications are accepted in French, English and Arabic.
