This short guide to global mobility is written for artists and cultural operators. It is concerned with professional mobility, travel to and work in places beyond Europe. It sees mobility as a process of engaging with different cultures and realities, about respect and communication, an exchange which has the potential to challenge one’s assumptions and change one’s practice. The process may be complex and time-consuming and there’s precious little funding available but the rewards can be astonishing. This article offers some advice to those arts professionals who wish to engage in international mobility and provides links to organisations and programmes of interest from around the world.
