Collaboration between UK and Germany Supports World-leading Research
Awards have been made to 19 collaborative research projects in the third round of funding delivered by the partnership between the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) and the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (快三砍龙, German Research Foundation).
The awards bring together arts and humanities researchers in the UK and Germany to conduct outstanding projects spanning a wide range of academic disciplines.
After receiving high-quality proposals, both funders agreed to support 19 projects. This means an increase in budget, totalling over 拢5.2 million in the UK, matched by over 鈧�5.2 million for research teams in Germany. The projects will start in 2022 and are expected to run for three years until 2025.
The projects show the importance of transnational collaboration in supporting world-leading research.
This is part of a long-standing collaboration between the two funders, which was renewed earlier this year. The bilateral funding agreement has been extended for five years, and will facilitate a total of eight funding opportunities. The fourth call is now open for applications.
