The Question of Funding

Biography

The Question of Funding (QOF) is a growing collective of cultural producers and community organisers from Palestine. By producing, documenting, accumulating and disseminating resources, experiences and knowledge with the wider community, the collective aims to rethink the economy of funding and the way in which it affects cultural production, both in Palestine and the world at large. The Question of Funding is now focusing on developing Dayra, a medium for circulating communal debt within existing trust circles. It allows interdependency between different economies in the society by measuring, sharing and exchanging the value of local resources and knowledge, which can be considered existing wealth in the absence of money.
