Bilateral cooperation between FCT and Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst

FCT and the Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst (DAAD) have opened applications for the Call for the exchange of researchers within the scope of joint research projects for the 2023/2024 biennium. Proposals can be submitted until September 19, 2022.

This Call is intended to finance the mobility of researchers participating in the projects, namely travel and subsistence expenses for the Portuguese team in Germany (the amount foreseen for each project will be €2000/year).

To date, 33 projects have been funded, and in the Call priority will be given to new projects/new teams and teams that have not been funded in recent Calls. The non-inclusion of young researchers in the Portuguese team is eliminatory, so the presentation of the young researchers' work plan is mandatory.

FCT and DAAD will evaluate and select the projects to be funded, and applications that are not submitted simultaneously to these two organizations will not be considered.
The award of the subsidy for the second year of the project is dependent on the submission and approval of a technical/financial report, to be sent to the technician accompanying the program, by the end of November 2023.
