to the Portuguese scholarship holders linked to the “danceWEBEurope 2008” project.<br />

Since the applications submitted for consideration under the scope of this programme are frequently<br />

cross-disciplinary in nature and highlight aspects that are the responsibility of the Fine <strong>Art</strong>s<br />

Department, this programme was transferred to that department during 2008, although the Music<br />

Department still remained responsible for awarding support.<br />
