Pro Helvetia New Delhi has worked together with partners to achieve a common purpose: to support Swiss and Indian artists to seek dialogue with each others' cultures in an effort to forge closer ties.    

Working with partners has been a conscious decision. Whether European partners or other local ones, the opportunity to pursue common goals, in our individual capacities, has added value to the work that Pro Helvetia does. Meaningful partnerships, on which our projects are established, are the foundation of the success of our projects.
