The third thematically open call of the r4d (research for development) programme supports research on global issues in the context of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Global issues are understood as issues that have common causes and require common solutions that go beyond national borders.
The evaluation procedure is structured into two stages (pre-proposals, full proposals). Each funded project has a running time of maximally 4 years and a total budget of about CHF 600'000.
The total budget available for the 3rd Thematically Open Call is CHF 5.5 million, from which 8-10 projects can be funded.
mySNF opens for this call on 27 March 2017. Deadline for submitting pre-proposals via mySNF: 12 June 2017, 17:00.
