In March 2018, the FWO has signed an agreement with the São Paulo Science Foundation (FAPESP) on the funding of new research projects with a duration of three years open to fundamental research in all disciplines. Project proposals have to be submitted both at FWO by a research group from Flanders and at FAPESP by a research group from Brazil (State of São Paulo).
In Flanders these projects go beyond the classic exchange and collaboration projects, because staff and consumables can also be financed.
Deadline for submission is the 1st of June 2018 (5 pm, Belgian time) at FWO. Projects will start in January 2019.
