MIASA supports these projects via different kinds of fellowships: individual fellowships, tandem fellowships with one tandem partner from Germany and the other from Africa, and fellowships as members of Interdisciplinary Fellow Groups (IFG). In addition, MIASA invites artists to interact with and accompany fellows in their ongoing research at the institute. From 2021 until 2026, MIASA will grant some 20 fellowships per year in total.
