The topic is also becoming more and more relevant in cultural funding, and applicants are increasingly encouraged to take sustainable and climate-friendly approaches into account when implementing their projects.

To ensure that funding recipients are well prepared to take on this additional responsibility, the Ernst von Siemens Musikstiftung, the Goethe-Institut, Impuls neue Musik, inm / field notes, Musikfonds and ON Cologne, in cooperation with 2N2K, are offering a series of workshops on developing competence in the field of sustainable development.
