LINA international alliance is looking for emerging creatives working at the intersection of architecture and spatial practices to better the common future. All kinds of bold thinkers and practitioners are invited to apply with a proposal illustrating their ideas.
A proposal can be either completed work or a new idea. It does not need to be intended for direct realisation but should be thoughtfully developed and grounded in rigorous inquiry.
Between 20 and 22 applicants (individuals or teams) will be selected from the open call, and they will become Spotlight LINA Fellows for 2026–2027:
- Spotlight LINA Fellows will be invited to join us in Barcelona, Spain, 22–23 October 2026 to attend the LINA Forum.
- During conversation and exchange at the LINA Forum, Fellows will discuss potential collaborations in the LINA Architecture Programme activities with LINA Members.
- Selected outcomes of collaborations between LINA Members and LINA Fellows will be presented at the LINA Festival in Ljubljana in April 2028.
LINA is seeking those who want to participate in meaningful activities such as mentoring, facilitation, residencies, research, writing, exhibiting, public engagement, programming, and much more. Although travel is not always a necessity, they are looking for those interested in international collaboration and developing their professional network.
Only residents and nationals of the 41 Creative Europe countries and Switzerland can apply.
One representative of each of the 20–22 selected Spotlight LINA Fellows will be provided with accommodation and will be reimbursed for their travel (up to 350 EUR) to attend the LINA Forum in Barcelona.
Collaborations are part of the fellowship programme and are co-financed by the LINA platform. Contracts cover honorariums and expenses and define the amount of work undertaken by LINA Fellows. Collaborations between LINA Members and LINA Fellows taking place in 2026-2027 will be presented at the LINA Festival in Ljubljana in April 2028.
