Opening International Vouchers

The procedure for this year's second period has been changed in two respects:
- The grant scheme will close when 30 complete applications have been submitted. This is because we expect to reach the grant ceiling of € 50,000 with this number of applications.
- If your submitted application meets the conditional criteria, you will be invited for a short digital interview with the Fund in which a decision on the application will be made.

conditional criteria

Vouchers international can be applied for by Dutch-based professionals in the fields of design, architecture and/or digital culture who have been invited by a foreign party to give a presentation, lecture or workshop, for example. Only complete applications will be considered. Applications are assessed against the following four conditional criteria:

- In the past five years, you have submitted an application to the Fund that has been positively assessed, with the exception of applications within International Vouchers;
- There is a motivated invitation from a relevant, foreign party;
- The inviting foreign party covers a proportionate part of the costs you have to incur to carry out the foreign activity;
- In the application, you have explained how the purpose and set-up of the foreign activity contribute to your professional practice.
