Registrations are now open for the sixth edition of the World Heritage Scholarship, an international scholarship promoted by the World Heritage Site of the “Decorated Farmhouses of Hälsingland” and established in 2018 by the Regional Assembly of Gävleborg, Sweden. The scholarship is intended for artistic, cultural or research projects, which connect the Decorated Farmhouses of Hälsingland with other UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
The award consists of a 4-week residency at one of the listed decorated farms in the Hälsinglands and also includes a scholarship of 4500 € to cover living/working expenses for a candidate project.
The scholarship is international and people from all over the world can apply, such as researchers, artists, or other cultural actors. Last year, more than 350 people from 60 different countries applied. Applications will be accepted from December 15, 2023 to February 15, 2024.
