The goal of the funding programme "Art for Well-being" is to promote cooperation of cultural and artistic organisations with other sectors of society and increase cohesion between culture, health and social security fields thus achieving a positive impact of art on human health and well-being. The programme supports pilot projects focusing on the accessibility of art in healthcare and social services institutions and fostering cultural participation of people using the services of these institutions. It also supports social innovation projects focusing on creative products, services and models that contribute to addressing social problems, i.e. ageing population, social exclusion, etc.
Funding was allocated to 29 projects in 2018 and 16 projects in 2019.
In 2018, USD 141 289 and in 2019, USD 76 254 was allocated for the implementation of the measure.
