Coventry City of Culture Trust

Coventry is famous for its pioneering international links – and they were strengthened through a Coventry City of Culture Trust project aimed at connecting the city with even more people around the world.

Coventry City of Culture Trust, in partnership with the British Council, has chosen more than 30 changemakers from the city for the creation and development of new online projects that will link them with international counterparts as part of the International Changemakers Digital Collaboration Bursary.

Bursaries of up to £4,000 were made available for new or existing projects that demonstrated how the changemakers could bring global communities together digitally for a shared international goal.
