The International Coproduction Fund (IKF) supports coproductions worldwide that grow out of collaborative and dialogue-based working processes in the fields of music, dance, theatre and performance art. This fund is used to promote innovative productions and international cultural exchange as well as new approaches to intercultural collaboration and networking.
The IKF provides funding for international coproductions that are likely to be of high artistic calibre and to have some impact on the respective arts scene. Hybrid and interdisciplinary formats and the use of digital media may be important elements of these coproductions. Collective artistic development of the project is a prerequisite, which is the reason why funding for projects that involve nothing but guest performances, tours or appearances at festivals is not provided.
