Covid-19 | FCT creates information page

The current Covid-19 pandemic situation has led to constant changes and exceptional measures being enacted by the Portuguese Government, with implications and changes in all sectors of society. For this reason, FCT has created a page where all information it issues, directly or indirectly related to this pandemic situation, and which in some way affects the activity of R&D institutions and the scientific community in general, will be made available or indexed. Follow the ongoing updates on the Covid-19 – FCT Information page.

The FCT also reports that it has implemented its internal contingency plan for the SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 pandemic, which prioritizes teleworking. Currently, most of its employees are working remotely, meaning that email has become the main means of contact between the public and the FCT. All contact details for the services that provide information to the public are available on the Foundation's website, organized by topic.
