Forecast encompasses one-on-one mentorships, the workshop series Forecast Condensed, and is the initiator of longterm scientific-artistic research programs. Artists can now apply with project ideas for the chance to work with one of the following mentors: fashion designer Hussein Chalayan (Cyprus/UK), vocalist and composer Elaine Mitchener (UK), performer and theater-maker Lulu Obermayer (Germany), artist and filmmaker Ruth Patir (Israel), video and installation artist James Richards (UK), and electronic musician and producer Sote (Iran/US).

If a mentor selects your proposal and you participate as a nominee at the Forecast Forum in July 2025, you will receive a fee of 2,000 euros, which includes the production cost of your presentation. Travel and accommodation for participants at the Forecast Forum in Berlin is granted by Forecast/Skills e.V. Please note that if you apply as a duo or collective, Forecast will cover travel and accommodation for only one member. If your proposal is subsequently chosen as one of the six mentee projects to be showcased at the Forecast Festival in March 2026, you will receive an artist fee of 6,000 euros and a production budget for realizing your project, up to a maximum of 8,000 euros. The production budget will be made available in installments based on the stages of the project’s development and its budgetary requirements.
