- Dance artists from abroad who wish to conduct research in NRW, as well as dance artists from one of the 20 member cities of the NRWKS who wish to conduct research abroad that is specific to a particular location or occasion, are eligible to apply.
- Tanzrecherche NRW deliberately shifts the focus away from production and towards the promotion of experimental artistic practices. It is therefore explicitly not a production grant.
