Are you an artist, institution, organisation or collective in the field of arts and culture from Lebanon, Jordan or Tunisia? Apply for a grant and expand cultural spaces in MENA! 

The Small Changes Project aims at expanding cultural space by making available platforms, tools and resources for independent and creative minds to step forward and use culture and art to engage with what is going on in the world.  It is currently focusing on Lebanon, Jordan and Tunisia.

The project is initiated by Freemuse, an international human rights organisation defending artistic freedom. Freemuse has UN ECOSOC consultative status and is generally regarded by the UN, international organisations and partners as the world’s leading NGO in the field of freedom of artistic expression and creativity. Freemuse monitors and documents violations of artistic freedom and expose laws and policies that enable and sustain these violations. We leverage evidence-based advocacy for systemic structural changes at the international, regional and national levels working with partners, artists, and activists in the global south and north. Freemuse campaigns for and supports individual artists, focusing on women artists at the international and national levels. We facilitate and grow locally owned national coalitions to defend artistic freedom and support their campaign and capacity building.
