S+T+ARTS Prize Africa

The potential of the arts and technology to address global issues has gotten the attention of funders around the world. In that spirit, the STARTS Prize is expanding this year to highlight African projects that bring together science, technology, and artistic practice to address social, ecological, and economic challenges. African citizens and residents involved in such practices are welcome to apply for the grand prize of €15,000. Five awards of €3,000 each will be offered to runners-up. The winner will present their work at the STARTS Prize Forum at the Ars Electronica Festival in Linz, Austria on September 4–8. Applications are available online and due March 1.
