The aim of the support for international promotion is to promote the internationalisation of professionals in the audiovisual industry; authors, organisations/companies, works and productions as well as general international networking in the industry. The support can also be granted on a case-by-case basis for international parties for the distribution of Finnish audiovisual works and/or promoting their visibility.

As the pandemic has most affected filmmakers with fewer possibilities, we felt the need to show solidarity. Thus, AVEK, the Promotion Centre of Audiovisual Culture in Finland will direct 30 000€ to support documentary projects of the global south.

AVEK has continuous application periods apart from the Mediarata and the CreaDemo and DigiDemo grants. In addition, in some supports the decisions are only made on certain days.
