The World Heritage Residence/Scholarship
The World Heritage Scholarship is international and seeks cultural creators and researchers from all over the world.
The international Residence Scholarship for the World Heritage site Decorated Farmhouses of Hälsingland was established in 2018 by the Regional Assembly in Gävleborg. The Scholarship is aimed for those who have an artistic idea related to the UNESCO World Heritage list and are interested to connect the World Heritage site Decorated Farmhouses of Hälsingland with other World Heritage sites in an artistic, cultural or researching way.
The World Heritage Scholarship is a residency that involves
- staying and living in one or two World Heritage farms for a period of one month
- a grant of equivalent 50.000 SEK to carry out the idea/project in question
- travel to and from Sweden and a car at your disposal during the stay
The scholarship is international and can be applied for by people from all over the world, such as researchers, artists or other cultural actors.
Region Gävleborg awards the Residence Scholarship to a person who has an idea related to the UNESCO World Heritage list and can connect the World Heritage site Decorated Farmhouses of Hälsingland to another World Heritage site in an artistic, cultural or researching way.
