Mobility Funding Guide: Pakistan

The Mobility Funding Guide: Funding Opportunities for International Cultural Exchange in Asia, Guide to Pakistan provides an overview of funding available for cultural projects to and from Pakistan. 

In this latest edition for Pakistan (January 2026), readers can find funding opportunities by country in most artistic and cultural disciplines. There are 11 sources of funding that have a focus on Asia.

To make sure that the publication uses reliable sources, only regular opportunities accessible online are listed. This means that there are a number of resources that are not listed: funds for which information is only available offline, funds that are not based on open calls, and ad hoc or short-term funding. Additionally, this guide was last updated in 2025, so there might be some changes in the listed opportunities.

The guide is an attempt to gather all the resources in one document and is by no means complete. Rather, it is a starting point for research into funding for mobility in the context of Pakistan. You can learn about how to read the mobility funding guides here. 

Since 2012, the Asia-Europe Foundation (ASEF) and On the Move (OTM) have jointly presented the Mobility Funding Guides for International Cultural Exchange for the 51 countries of the Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM).
