Innovationspreis Soziokultur (Social Culture Innovation Prize)
Since 2003 the Fonds Soziokultur (Sociocultural Fund) has been awarding the biennial “Innovationspreis Soziokultur”, endowed with EUR 10 000, to cultural/artistic initiatives, centres and clubs.
The Fonds Soziokultur decided to offer this prize as an additional motivation for the development of outstanding projects. Each prize is linked to a specific theme, which is announced in the call for grant applications.
It is thus not possible for project coordinators to submit a competition entry directly; instead they have to participate in the relevant call for grant applications and submit an application for a project which engages with the relevant theme. If the applicant is allocated a grant for that specific project, then the board of trustees can also nominate it for the Innovationspreis.
Nominated projects are monitored and evaluated particularly closely during their implementation. When all the projects have been concluded, a special prize jury selects the winner of the “Innovationspreis Soziokultur”. If necessary, the jury can also award a second and a third prize (endowed with EUR 5 000 respectively EUR 3 000) or share a prize among multiple winners.
