AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

As an implementation instrument of the Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions, the Programme promotes the mobility of young artists through sojourns in art residencies abroad so as to foster creativity and cultural diversity. It recognizes the important contribution of artists in the creative process and their central role in nurturing the diversity of cultural expressions.

Artist-in-residence bursaries are being offered in institutions around the world in three fields: visual arts, creative writing and music.

To consult the list of bursaries being offered for 2010, please see www.unesco.org/culture/aschberg

Direct links to institutions and full instructions on the application requirements and necessary dates are available there.
