the Culture Programme of the European Union, by Austrian funding bodies
and by local funding from the home country of the nominee (but no
private persons as sponsors). This last part is not yet secured in all
countries. Therefore the applicants are encouraged to look for possible
funding institutions in their home countries. It is a good idea to check
the former danceWEBers from your home country and where they received
funding from: http://www.lifelongburning.eu/projects/danceweb_scholarships/scholarship_recipients_since_1996.html
