The SABA educational scholarship supports people who have experienced migration or displacement by providing empowering settings and financial resources, thereby enabling them to attain a school-leaving certificate as a mature student. This lets them plan out their career so they can look forward to the future they want to have

Most activities connected with cultural education are located in large urban areas, which means that pupils and artists in the countryside have very few venues where they can meet up. That’s where the ‘flying artist’s room’ (Fliegendes Künstlerzimmer, or FlieKü) comes in, functioning as a mobile live-in studio in rural schoolyards. Even on the outskirts of towns, universal cultural participation is by no means a foregone conclusion. That’s why the FlieKü opened its doors in a district of Frankfurt for the very first time in 2023.

Weiter Schreiben is a literary platform that gives a voice to authors from regions affected by war and conflict. Weiter Schreiben has been translating, illustrating and publishing poetry and prose by writers in exile since 2017.

We’re currently living in an era of redefining how people relate to nature. Art plays a special role in this process: it has the potential to tread new ground and generate ideas. That’s why the Crespo Foundation has initiated a programme that gives artists the ideal setting where they can address the topic: the ‘Glenkeen Garden Residencies – ArtNature/NatureArt’ on the south coast of Ireland.

Together with C/O Berlin, the Crespo Foundation has launched the ‘After Nature . Ulrike Crespo Photography Prize’. Since 2024, the prize, endowed with 80,000 euros, has been awarded annually to two international artists who use photography and image-based media to respond to the changing ecology of the present and explore new concepts of nature and art.
