Assessment and Decisions
All applications submitted to the Swedish Cultural Foundation in November have been assessed by different constellations of experts. Applications concerning professional artistic work, research, and education have undergone collegial evaluation by anonymous experts.
Our experts consist of the elected representatives in the delegation and the regional assemblies, as well as anonymous external experts. The anonymous experts may hold their assignment for a maximum of three consecutive years. We recruit these anonymous experts both within Finland and in other Nordic countries, and they have relevant professional experience.
The opinions of the experts carry considerable weight in the assessment, but the final decision has been made by the executive board of the Swedish Cultural Foundation. The decisions cannot be appealed.
Guidance before the Next Application Round
We hope that you will apply again even if you received a rejection this time. Every autumn we organise guidance sessions prior to the application period – please feel free to use these opportunities to ask questions if there is anything you are wondering about.
