More Information
Who can apply?
Students and staff at HDK-Valand who are working in design and craft are eligible to apply for project grants from Göteborgs Slöjdförening, following a long tradition to support practitioners in the field originating from 1848, when the Society established Slöjdföreningens Skola, today integrated in the University of Gothenburg, Faculty of Fine, Applied and Performing Arts. Alumni students can apply for project grants within a year of completing their studies.
What are the requirements?
Primarily, the society funds projects that are innovative and experimental, and/or have clearly public and/or international aims. The grants are intended for individual as well as collaborative projects that cannot be realised within the day-to-day activities of the school. Projects within educational programs and courses, including degree projects, as well as already funded projects within research and staff development, are not eligible.
How can the grant be used?
A grant can be spent on, for example: materials and tools, renting equipment and space, services (e.g. printing), fees to lecturers, expert participants, costs related to study visits, workshops, conferences, seminars, travel expenses and car rentals, etc. You cannot use the grant to pay yourself a salary. Grants awarded usually range from 5000 up to 50000 SEK.
