Deadline: 27 May 2025
The Independent Research Fund Denmark is delighted to seek applications for its Green Research Initiative with the aim of supporting green, independent and curiosity-driven research.
The prioritisation must promote researchers’ own original ideas that can contribute to the green transition. At the same time, the prioritisation must work to support the career development of the growth layer in Danish research environments, e.g. early career researchers.
Career development of the growth layer in Danish research environments can be supported in various ways. Applications for this theme must include at least one PhD student or postdoctoral candidate. Additionally, career development can also be supported if the applicant or Co-PI is an early career researcher (e.g. at assistant professor level) and a grant would contribute to establishing them as an independent research leader.
Funding Information
- Grant amount: up to DKK 5,000,000 excluding overhead/administration expenses.
- Duration: The duration of the research project is up to five years.
Eligibility Criteria
- Your application must include at least one PhD student or postdoctoral candidate. This requirement is intended to support the growth layer in Danish research.
- In the appendix to your project description, you must account for the ways in which your application can contribute to the green transition as well as how your application supports career development for the growth layer in Danish research.
