Opportunities for development research funding

Topic: Opportunities for development research funding

Time: Aug 29, 2023 02:00 PM Stockholm

The registration is now closed but you can still participate by sending an email to ioannis.dimitriou@slu.se stating if you want to attend in Uppsala or online.

With the recently and abrupt cut fundings from the Swedish government to development research, it is important to find alternative ways and new fundings to keep up the important work and strong collaborations with low- and middle-income countries. 

This seminar will start with presentations from researchers with fundings from alternative sources and how they proceeded. After the presentations it will be time for discussions in smaller groups (breakout rooms for those online). The seminar will then finish with a smaller session of mingle/networking for those joining physically. 

Target group: Employees at SLU interested to know more about research funding opportunities.
