The Seed Award recognises 100 emerging talents and offers support to creative work that engages with urgent socio-political issues within their local context. Recipients receive €5.000 to freely invest in their practice, alongside global recognition, connections, and opportunities.
One year after receiving the 2024 Seed Award, the Awardees shared brief reports on their progress. We were happy to see that 93 Awardees created an impact that continues to grow over time, contributing towards a more inclusive, peaceful and sustainable future.

"In an environment where certainties are crumbling, where political instability and violence make any project fragile, the Seed Award reminded me that my work has value."
These 93 narratives, submitted by Awardees from 63 countries across Africa, Asia, Latin America, the Caribbean and Eastern Europe highlight the impacts mapped against the Prince Claus Fund Theory of Change. This report explores how the 2024 Seed Award supports emerging artists amid global challenges — serving not only as a source of practical impact, but also as an affirmation of the value of socially transformative artistic work on issues such as freedom, climate and equity. It also reflects on the outcomes and growth experienced by the Awardees.
