HF is advocating new models of production, regional cooperation and alternative forms of education. Within the program of Production, Heartefact creates a space for artistic communication about painful social issues. Through the changing of existing artistic and cultural practices in the region, HF supports artists who have the knowledge and desire to critically reflect on society around them. The work of young artists is affirmed by the annual award for the best contemporary dramatic text.

Activities of the Production program are focused primarily on the theater and the visual arts. Socio-politically engaged theater and visual productions are the central point of the work of Heartefact, which makes us a leading actor of contemporary artistic expressions in the region. 

Through creative, expert, and artistic exchange in in the region of the Western Balkans, Heartefact supports and encourages contemporary and engaged cultural and artistic creativity, and thus creates the conditions for producing a new generation of progressive individuals.
Ever since its establishment in 2009, Heartefact has been committed to creating a regional cultural space which is responsible towards the past and builds a secure future.
Heartefact gives special attention in its work to marginalized and discriminated social groups. Heartefact has productions, a foundation, and an institute. So far we have produced more than 50 art programmes in the theatrical and visual arts, published over twenty authors of contemporary drama, supported over 80 programmes through the foundation, and organised over 100 exchanges in the region.
