Mobility
Mobility within the ActinArt network focuses on the sharing of experiences and merging of creative, artistic and entrepreneurial practices.
Mobility supports the participation of network members in the activities organized by ActinArt or by the network members individually. Through Nordplus Express mobility, ActinArt is able to support its students to take part in projects in cooperation with another ActinArt member institution or country.
We put emphasis on extracurricular activities and activities and learning situations outside of traditional classroom experience.
Mobility grants are awarded to students and teachers of our member institutions. Receivers of the mobility grants are based on the application form sent to the network admin. Read more about how to apply for a grant below.
The grant is given only for recognized mobility activities within the Nordic/Baltic countries.
It is possible to apply if your institution is not a member yet. For this, please contact the network admin to negotiate the conditions of your mobility.
Student Mobility
ActinArt is eagerly supporting all students’ activities that do not necessarily fall under the traditional understanding of the learning process. Unlike other networks, we focus on students’ creativity and “outside of the box” thinking, so applying for participation in all sorts of projects, internships, practices are welcome and strongly encouraged and will be prioritized.
Applying for a mobility grant in our network is simple. The most important part is to have an idea of what you want to do and where.
The original form should be kept at the home institution with a copy to the network coordinator. If these conditions are not fulfilled, part or the whole grant can be recovered.
Should you have any questions about the mobility and grants, let us know at info@actinart.org.
