In the spring of 2024, Formas - the Swedish research council for sustainable development – is launching a new targeted call for early-career researchers, where the previous project grant and mobility support are replaced by a flexible career grant, with deadline on 10 April.

To understand the novelties introduced by Formas and develop a competitive proposal to this call, the Grants Office invites all junior SLU researchers to a workshop, where Caroline Grabbe (research coordinator at the SLU Grants Office) will delve into the guidelines, expectations and evaluation criteria for this call, and provide tips and techniques for developing a strong proposal. The workshop is open for researchers at all levels, but is especially targeting junior researchers who are considering to submit an application to this call.

The workshop will be delivered on Zoom from 09:00 to 12:00 on 22 February 2024.
