Since March 2021, the project United Inclusion has been bringing cultural actors with disabilities and cultural funding organizations together. We want to find out how arts and cultural funding can effectively promote the artistic activity and participation of people with disabilities – both as creators and as audiences. Last year, our focus was on formulating the needs of the community and developing proposals. The results (in German) are available for download free of charge in the publication “United Inclusion. Kulturf\u00f6rderung gerecht gestalten” (United Inclusion: Designing Equitable Cultural Funding).<\/p>\n
We are very pleased to be able to continue the project this year. United Inclusion – Step 2 is dedicated to the concrete implementation of policies for the non-material and financial funding for the cultural participation of people with disabilities. Once again in co-production with representatives of funding bodies, cultural workers with disabilities and other experts, we are developing knowledge and materials that support the work of funding organisations. The following questions are addressed: How can accessibility and inclusion be anchored in the content and language of funding concepts\/criteria? What barriers exist from different disability perspectives in the entire “service chain” of funding policies? Additionally, we are developing information materials for applicants in the performing arts, film and music. In a public closing event in December 2022, we will present excerpts from all modules and information events.<\/p>\n
