Support culture. Spark change.

Across the globe, culture is under pressure. Amid censorship and conflict, Prince Claus Fund artists, activists, and visionaries are building a more inclusive, sustainable, and equitable future.

From photographer Kobra Akbari documenting the courage of Afghan women and Sharon Chin fighting for climate justice through art and activism in Malaysia, to Djamila Ribeiro exploring racial and gender inequality, focusing on their intersections within Brazilian society, our global network of changemakers is working at the forefront.
