Once a year, the board makes a choice from the projects submitted. The next application period runs from January 1 to February 28, 2026.
How do I submit an application
The application procedure has been changed in 2026. A maximum of twenty applications will be selected from the applications receievd and will be discussed during the boardmeeting. Applicants will be notified whether they have been selected. The selection uses the criteria established by the board: the nature of the work, the working method, the experimental character, the power of the image and the target group. In principle, the total project should not cost more than 70,000 euros. The maximum amount to request is 10,000. There is 30,000 to 40,000 available for distribution annually. The application is submitted by email with: 1. A completed form and 2. The complete application consisting of one PDF file of a maximum of 10 MB and 10 pages that is easily readable and formatted in A4 format (portrait). How the application should be structured can be found in the document behind the Frequently Asked Questions link (bottom right of this page). The form to be completed can also be found there.
