Ongoing Projects.
The Interdisciplinary Program
Three young aspiring creators gets 10 months in Malmö at STPLN to learn, create and make an impact.
The Interdisciplinary Program is a 10-month experience through European Solidarity Corps where three young ambitious and aspiring creatives hone their skills, develop their portfolio and gain first-hand experience working within the creative and cultural industries. Funded by MUCF through the Erasmus + ESC Program, this project offers a unique experience to participants to work on a variety of creative projects alongside the team at STPLN in Malmö, Sweden.
PULSE
Together with Inkonst, STPLN aims to strengthen Malmö’s club culture by building a supportive ecosystem for young creators and club collectives.
The project focuses on offering training opportunities, creating networks, opening up access to spaces and technical infrastructure, and championing club culture as a vital and legitimate part of the cultural landscape.
Creative Catalyst
Fast track you cultural career in Sweden
Are you a migrant or newly arrived artist, creator, or cultural worker looking to establish yourself in Sweden? Join us June 16-17, 2026, for two intensive days at STPLN in Malmö, designed to give you the tools, networks, and insider knowledge you need to succeed.
Many talented cultural practitioners face barriers when entering the Swedish scene—not due to a lack of skill, but due to a lack of networks and understanding of local structures. Creative Catalyst is designed to bridge that gap. Hosted by STPLN in collaboration with SwIdeas and Foreign to Found, this event serves as a professional springboard into the Swedish cultural sector.
Designing Participatory Spaces
Innovation in Placemaking and Capacity Building.
Designing Participatory Spaces is a collaborative project between STPLN (Sweden) and Ankara Aks (Türkiye) focused on empowering cultural and creative professionals to drive societal change. By fostering innovation in placemaking, design, and artistic expression, the project will build capacity in both Sweden and Türkiye to strengthen democratic engagement, freedom of expression, and social responsibility. Through workshops, collaborative projects, and cross-cultural exchange, the initiative aims to equip participants with the tools and knowledge to advocate for sustainability, bridge social divides, and promote inclusive community development. This project is vital for inspiring positive, lasting transformation in both local and global contexts.
