Applications are open to professional choreographers who have an established track record, are at a mid‑career stage, and are based in one of the eligible countries (Belgium, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Ukraine, Norway, Tunisia). Candidates must submit a CV, a short research proposal (max 2 pages) and portfolio links via the online form. The call opens 1 July 2026 and the deadline is 31 August 2026.
