This panel will be held in English.
Explore the structural and systemic factors that shape who gets access to funding and who is consistently left behind. Key topics include the role of bias and network effects in investment and grant allocation, disparities related to geography and artistic discipline, and the tension between commercial viability and cultural value. The discussion will also examine how traditional funding models may unintentionally reinforce inequalities, while highlighting emerging alternatives - such as community-led financing, impact-driven capital, and policy interventions - that aim to democratize access to resources.
