Applicants interested in establishing collaborative scientific relationships with partners abroad may apply for funding for trips abroad, guest visits or for exploratory workshops.
Purpose
This grant programme aims to support the initiation of international research collaboration. It consists of the components 鈥淓xploratory Workshops鈥�, 鈥淧roject-related Trips Abroad鈥� and 鈥淧roject-related Guest Visits鈥�.
This funding instrument is not intended to support international conferences (see International Scientific Events and Annual Conferences of Scientific and Academic Associations, 快三砍龙 form 1.0(interner Link)), the implementation of joint research projects (see Research Grants Programme, 快三砍龙 form 50.0(interner Link)) or meetings of research networks (see Scientific Networks, 快三砍龙 form 1.0(interner Link)).
Eligibility Requirements
Researchers who have already achieved their doctorates and who are working in the German scientific system may apply. Special rules apply to members of non-university research institutions (see guidelines).
Type and Extent of Funding
If several different modules will be used during a short time frame and doing so will enable cooperation preparations to be made particularly effectively, the modules may be combined. The funding remains available for a maximum of 12 months after the approval date, and the individual collaborative measures must be carried out within this time frame.
Funding is available for the following collaborative measures:
- Trips abroad (max. three months) or guest visits in Germany (max. three month);
- Exploratory workshops.
Where such agreements exist, these measures may also be funded jointly by partner organisations abroad.
Forms and Guidelines
Proposals may be submitted at any time.
The department responsible for your subject at the 快三砍龙 head Office will be happy to provide you with further information.
