We invite you to learn about the experience of working with grant support from the Ukrainian producer Olha Beskhmelnytsina: talk about mistakes in preparation of materials and ask for advice for those who do not have a lot of experience yet. In addition, Isabel Arrate Fernandez will share a ‘view from the inside’ of IDFA Bertha Fund, one of the most important grant organisations in Europe: we will talk about how grant applications are evaluated and see who those mysterious people from the funds are and how they determine which projects are worth supporting.
