Rebuilding to Last workshop mobility grant 2023

The Rebuilding to Last project, organised by Trans Europe Halles (TEH) and a consortium of European partners, is calling for applications for their experimental hands-on workshops on how to sustainably transform cultural spaces, held in September and October 2023 in Denmark and Slovakia. 

The Rebuilding to Last project researches how cultural spaces are implementing (or aim to implement) sustainable solutions in their spaces and practices and test fit-for-purpose ideas. The ambition of the project is to build capacity of independent cultural spaces to address sustainable renovation of their buildings and champion sustainable transition among their teams, audiences, communities and cities. 

About the interventions

The Rebuilding to Last Participatory Architecture Interventions (RTL PAI) are experimental hands-on workshops organised and hosted by two cultural spaces who are implementing environmental future-proofing solutions in their spaces and/or neighbourhoods.

Between September 2023 and May 2024, both cultural spaces, with the help of the Rebuilding to Last project partners, will organise a series of hands-on participatory interventions that will help the centres to make their spaces more sustainable. 

The workshops

• Institute for X in Aarhus, Denmark, 18–23 September 2023 
• Stanica/Nova Synagoga in Zilina, Slovakia, 10–14 October 2023 

How can I join?

The project is offering 10 mobility grants to visit one or both workshops scheduled for late 2023. Each grant is a set amount of 500 EUR per person per workshop. This amount is meant to help ease the costs of travel, accommodation and subsistence during the interventions. 

Who can apply?

Call is open to all interested. Priority will be given to staff of independent cultural centres across Europe, especially TEH member centres, as well as staff of organisations who participated in the RTL Hackathon in Berlin in January 2023.
