We encourage culture

We build bridges between culture, education and science and rely on the power of art, which poses questions and opens up new modes of access.

Afghan Cultural Fund


The Afghanistan Cultural Fund is committed to supporting Afghan cultural practitioners. It aims to support artists in Afghanistan and abroad to continue their creative work, to ensure that cultural heritage is protected and valued. A special focus is given to women practitioners who have particularly suffered a cutback in their liberties under the current Taliban regime.
