արդ եւս|in view 2025-2026, progressive cultural practices in Western Armenian

In 2026, արդ եւս|in view grant programme of the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation invites creatives and thinkers to imagine the Armenian diasporic cultural landscape as the very social infrastructure upon which they can build a stronger, more vibrant and resilient future. The aim is to strengthen the social and cultural fabrics of Armenian communities worldwide through creativity, ideation, and language use.

Newly created culture, original and familiar at the same time, will be a conduit of connectivity and interaction, strengthening the social infrastructure, supporting individual and collective well-being through creativity, identity exploration, and meaning-making. արդ եւս|in view encourages people to be generous with ideas and innovation, as they contribute to shaping the vibrant future of the Western Armenian language. 

The արդ եւս | in view programme welcomes submissions from individuals, small groups, and non-profit organisations or institutions. All applicants must be over 18 years of age. For-profit entities are not eligible. Up to 10 projects will be supported each year, each receiving a maximum grant of €10,000.

The deadline for submissions is 28 February 2026.
