Promoting scientific collaboration between Switzerland and the MENA region.

Research Partnership Grants 2025

The call is open until 22nd August 2025!

The call for projects "Research Partnership Grants" aims at developing new joint project proposals or connecting already existing funded projects in Switzerland and in the MENA partner countries into long-lasting cooperation. The goal of this instrument is to allow researchers to conduct desk-based research, fieldwork, feasibility studies, archival research, qualitative interviews, surveys, artistic practices, design thinking, or other forms of collaborative work, in order to apply for grants from other funding agencies (e.g. national funding agencies or EU funding schemes), and/or to develop long-term partnerships between two institutions or research groups. The Research Partnership Grants instrument has already been launched in 2021, 2022 and 2023. 

The full text of the call and additional information can be found on the website of the Leading House MENA.
