Please note that the Crossing Borders Funding Program has been discontinued and applications are no longer possible.
Funding is available for German-language publications in countries in Africa, Asia and Europe. In addition, authors, filmmakers and photographers from China, India, Indonesia, Japan and Vietnam can apply for funding for research projects in Germany. It is possible to apply for funding for those countries listed on the map.
The aim of the program is to support the creation of publications that refute commonly held stereotypes, inspire dialog and promote mutual understanding.
We welcome applications from authors, filmmakers and photographers who intend to gather information first hand, visit authentic sites and dare to forge their own, new perspective. The intended publication may range from literary and essayistic prose works, poetry, photo-text volumes, children’s and young adults’ literature, scripts for documentary and feature films, to radio programs and multimedia productions.

Robert Prosser schildert intensiv ein fast vergessenes Kapitel der jüngeren Geschichte: Der Jugoslawienkrieg, der die letzte große innereuropäische Flüchtlingswelle in den 1990ern auslöste, dessen drastische Verbrechen bis heute nicht aufgearbeitet sind und weit in die Generation der Kinder der Geflüchteten nachwirken.
„Das Feature ist geprägt von Leidenschaft und widerspiegelt viel Deutsches und Polnisches.“
Crossing Borders is a program of the Robert Bosch Stiftung, which is carried out in cooperation with the Literarisches Colloquium Berlin. The contact persons at the Literarisches Colloquium Berlin will gladly answer your questions about the program and the application process.
