For the fifth time, the Berlin Senate will grant a Work Stipend for Berlin-based authors that write in languages other than German. The application deadline ends on May 11th at 6 pm and the grant refers to the year 2022. The work stipends available under this programme are awarded to support the artistic development of professional authors. Stipends are available for work processes of a limited duration and for work on ongoing projects that will either be continued or completed during the funding period. Stipends are awarded on the basis of the quality of work, potential for development and continuity. The purpose of the scholarship is also to enrich Berlin’s literary scene through the promotion and support of innovative texts and authors. Ten stipends are available for a period of usually twelve months. Each stipend is worth 24.000 €, which will probably be paid in twelve monthly instalments of 2.000 € each. The application must be submitted online. More information regarding the eligibility and criteria to be found here: INFO
Please note: Lettrétage e. V. (Projekt schreiben & leben) does not grant any stipends. We are only offering some free advisement in order to help you with questions related to the application.
