# Project funding for cultural projects on World Women's Day

## Summary

If you are planning a project that deals artistically with (queer) feminist issues, you can apply for funding.
## Description

Every year on International Women's Day on 8 March, the Cultural Department of the City of Munich offers project funding for cultural projects taking place in March.

Projects from all cultural and artistic disciplines and various analogue and digital event formats can be submitted. The projects should deal artistically with current feminist issues and take different perspectives into account. Ideas that focus on positive empowerment are welcome. In order to strengthen the networking of the field of actors, only projects that are realised in cooperation between at least two initiatives, associations and/or institutions ("tandem") will be funded. In the selection process, attention is also paid to balanced target groups and a coherent overall programme.

All projects funded within this framework are presented and advertised on the #sieinspiriertmich website.

## Required Documents

* Fully completed and signed application for project funding
* A concrete description of the project (please answer all questions from the above application form, page 2)
* A financing plan for the project with all income and expenditure (incl. rental costs)
* A confirmation from the second cultural initiative / partner with whom you wish to apply and a description of the nature of the collaboration or division of tasks.

## Prerequisites

* Projects must be submitted by at least two cultural initiatives / artists' groups / institutions that wish to co-operate with each other.
* The applicants must live or work in Munich (S-Bahn area).
* The project sets positive (queer) feminist impulses and ties in with #sieinspiriertmich.
* The project takes place in March 2025.
* The project description describes the desired target group(s) and specifically addresses how they are to be reached.

## Please Note

**Application deadline**  

Project proposals can be submitted until 26 November 2024.

## Legal Basis

Applicants for the selected projects will be informed in December and can then start preparations straight away.

The funds will be paid out at the beginning of 2025. The funding criteria of the Department of Culture apply. The grants will be awarded through administrative channels (i.e. without a jury process). There is no legal entitlement to funding.

## Questions and Answers

 
### Can I get advice on a project idea?

 

Yes, you can get personal advice from the person responsible or you can take part in our digital information event on 6 November 2924 from 12 to 1 pm. Please register with Veronika Kirschner and you will receive the access data.   


   
### I have a good idea, but no suitable room.

 

If you are looking for premises, please use the offer on our website or contact us in advance.  


   
### Will there be another joint event in 2025 as part of #sieinspiriertmich?

 

No, this will only take place biennially.

   
### Can I also submit the application by e-mail?

 

Yes, but it must be signed!   


please state #sim 2025 in the subject line, limit the file size to a maximum of 5 MB and name your file as follows: **Your\_surname\_first\_name\_SIM2025**  


   
### Can I also include other funding in the #sieinspiriertmich project?

 

Yes, other funding may also be included in the project. We award a maximum of 5,000 euros per project. Please bear this in mind in your concept and plan realistically (see also: [Fair fees guide](https://stadt.muenchen.de/infos/faire-honorare-kultur.html)). The projects should be appropriate to your budget. Multi-day events or theatre productions are generally unrealistic.
