How to get your project included in the SA-UK Seasons 2014 & 2014:
The SA-UK Seasons is now opening a call for joint projects. There are three ways to get your project on the schedule for the programme:

Grant Assistance – Partnership Support

  • The maximum amount of grant assistance available through the Season fund is ZAR 200,000
  • Grants are only available for a maximum of 50% of project costs
  • Projects need to demonstrate a strong delivery partnership between established organisations in UK & SA
  • Preference will be given to applications from partners with a track record of working internationally

Grant Assistance – Creative Catalyst

  • The maximum amount of grant assistance available through the Season fund is ZAR 100,000
  • Grants are only available for a maximum of 80% of project costs
  • These grants are to broker, support and develop new partnerships, that will benefit from a small-scale budget for travel and/or scoping
  • Applications are encouraged that explore new connections, are innovative and point to future deeper collaborations and partnerships

Endorsement

The Seasons run a website and communications plan that you can submit your project to for official endorsement. This will provide your project with visibility on the Season channels. You can apply for endorsement with or without an application for a grant.
