We’re excited to share that PartArt4OW has launched its Second Open Call.

We’re looking for bold, community-engaged proposals that combine science and artistic practices to prevent, study, and reduce water pollution in the Mediterranean region. From plastics to chemical runoff, noise to micro-contaminants, pollution threatens both ecosystems and communities - especially the most vulnerable.

The call is open to proposals that:

• Actively engage citizens, moving beyond simple awareness-raising.
• Combine science-based research with experimental and understudied artistic practices.
• Co-create new ways of understanding and tackling pollution.
• Focus on the communities living in close proximity to the ocean, water basins and rivers.
• Address key societal and environmental challenges of those communities and amplify unheard community voices.

Key Dates

• Deadline: 2 October 2025 at 17:00 CET
• Call opened: 1 August 2025 at 12:00 CET
