The international Residence Scholarship for the World Heritage Site Decorated Farmhouses of Hälsingland was established in 2018 by the Regional Assembly in Gävleborg. The Scholarship is aimed for those who have an artistic idea related to the UNESCO World Heritage List and are interested in connecting the World Heritage Site Decorated Farmhouses of Hälsingland in Sweden with other World Heritage Sites in an artistic, cultural or researching way.
The 7th scholarship is now open for applications. The scholarship is international and can be applied for by people from all over the world, such as artists, researchers, or other cultural actors.
Last year, more than 300 people from 58 different countries applied.
The World Heritage Scholarship includes
- Staying and living in one or two World Heritage farms for a period of one month
- A grant of equivalent 50000 SEK to carry out the idea/project in question
- Travel to and from Sweden and a car at disposal during the stay
Applications will be accepted from 16 December 2024 to 16 February 2025.
