|
Two types of grants are available:
- Short visit grants of up to 15 days
- Exchange grants, from 15 days to three months
Eligibility
1. Undertake work applicable to the Programme
2. Apply to stay in a European country other than the country of origin
3. Return to the institute of origin upon termination, so that the applicant’s institution may also benefit from the broadened knowledge of the scientist
4. Acknowledge ESF in publications resulting from the grantee’s work in relation with the grant
Priority will be given to applications where the institutions involved are in countries that financially support the programme.
Deadline
To create fair
chances to all applicants for long stays, there would be semi-annual
deadlines (May 15, and November 15) by which the Steering Committee
would decide upon such applications.
Visits to conferences
No applications for grants/support to attend to meetings
should be directed to the Global. All such applications
should go directly to the local organizers of the
meetings (supported by Global). No grants/support will
be given to applicants to attend non-global funded meetings.
Level of award
Short visit grants are reimbursed on a per diem basis of 85 EUR plus actual travel expenses up to a maximum of 500 EUR after the visit on submission of a completed balance payment form accompanied by the original travel tickets. No payment will be made without the scientific report.
Exchange grants are reimbursed on the basis of an allowance of 1,600 EUR per month / 400 EUR per week / 57 EUR per day plus actual costs for travel, up to a maximum of 500 EUR.
Applications providing a short description of the proposed project work (about 1000 words for exchange grants and 250 words for short visit grants) and the duration of the stay should be submitted using the on-line forms.
