Course content

Cultural funding is a central task because it is what makes cultural opportunities and activities possible in the first place. In view of the stagnation of public funding, scarcity of resources and density of supply, cultural funding is one of the core competencies of cultural management. This also includes younger forms such as crowdfunding or intensified national and international cooperation. Funding institutions and cooperation partners are seen as stakeholders that are also relevant for the networking and communication of cultural management. In principle, cultural funding can be considered on two levels: At the operational level, the focus is on knowledge transfer and know-how of funding procurement and processing in their various forms and sets of rules. Here, funding structures and procedural standards of the public sector as well as the special features of cultural sponsoring in the form of partnership design are taken into account to a particular degree as central pillars of cultural funding. The particular challenge of sponsorship funding lies in the reflected selection of possible sponsors, in the creation of adequate consideration and in the sustainable partnership design on an equal footing. On the idealistic and ideological level, the findings from larger contexts are decisive for acquiring critical opinion-forming and confident decision-making skills. The link between public funding and the system of cultural policy or cultural sponsoring and the system of economy requires a) an examination of the functioning and interests of these two systems and their feedback on the cultural sector and b) an understanding of the significance of dialogical structures for social action in the cultural sector. Finally, funding models such as crowdfunding and cooperation are the subject of Culture Management II.
