On the Move regularly commissions researchers to investigate different themes closely related to the network’s activities and the work carried out by its members. Reflecting on transversal concerns and key areas of artistic and cultural mobility, the network tries to establish a clearer picture of current movements and trends while formulating policy recommendations.
As part of its multiannual programme co-funded by the European Union, On the Move is publishing the fourth edition of the Cultural Mobility Yearbook.
This Yearbook is conceived as a way to delve into the numerous calls and resources that On the Move collects and promotes on a daily basis.
It does this primarily through a quantitative and qualitative analysis of calls for participation in residencies, meetings, fellowships, training activities, and other funded mobility opportunities for artists and culture professionals that were published on the On the Move website between 1 January and 31 December 2024 (with a few comparative references to the same data from previous years). In 2024, this gives us a dataset of 643 calls involving 107 countries and territories as mobility organisers or destinations.
