Climate change is one of the greatest societal challenges of our time and has far-reaching consequences for public health. To meet these challenges, we need new knowledge about how climate change affects human health, how society can adapt, and how climate action can contribute to improved health. The purpose of the call is to generate knowledge that can protect and promote the health of current and future generations.
Climate change is one of the greatest societal challenges of our time and has far-reaching consequences for public health. A changing climate increases health risks through extreme weather events, shifts in ecosystems and environmental conditions that drive heatwaves, infections, diseases, allergies, air pollution and natural disasters.
Climate change is already affecting people's lives and health, both in Sweden and globally, and the effects are more severe for groups that are already exposed and vulnerable. Without significant measures to limit global warming and to adapt societies to a changing climate, morbidity, mortality, inequality and reductions in quality of life will increase significantly.
This call aims to support research that contributes to a deeper understanding of the links between climate and health and strengthens society's capacity to protect and promote public health in Sweden in a changing climate.
The call welcomes projects with a broad range of focus areas and perspectives, including:
- Integrating the health perspective into climate policy and action, to provide decision-makers with evidence on public health risks and opportunities.
- Socio-economic analyses of health impacts and health benefits associated with emission reductions and climate adaptation.
- Monitoring and warning systems that integrate climate, health and socio-economic data to assess and predict future risks.
- The built environment and health, with a focus on how extreme weather events affect buildings and vulnerable groups.
- Mental health and well-being in relation to the direct and indirect effects of climate change, including how extreme weather impacts people's health and how such impacts can be prevented.
Research projects can shed light on these aspects in relation to, for example, heat waves, air pollution, infectious diseases, mental health and the impact on urban structure. Decision-makers need evidence-based data to integrate public health into climate policy – both in terms of emission reduction and climate adaptation. Funded projects should contribute with knowledge; how climate change affects human health, how society can adapt, and how climate measures can contribute to improved health.
The call is designed for researchers at Swedish universities, colleges, research institutes, authorities with research assignments or other organisations whose main activity is research.
Formas also has another call with a focus on health, and wellbeing, opening March, Forests and people: Towards a more robust knowledge base on health, well-being and small-scale private forest owners External link..
Climate change poses major challenges for societies in Sweden and globally. These challenges include both preparing for and adapting to increasing risks associated with extreme weather events and other climate-related effects. Protecting and promoting the health of current and future generations is one of the strongest arguments for meeting national and international climate targets. Climate change is already affecting people's lives and health, both in Sweden and globally, and vulnerable groups are hit the hardest. Without strong measures, levels of illness, mortality, inequality, and reduced quality of life are likely to increase significantly.
The extent of future climate-related health consequences in Sweden depends not only on climate change itself, but also on broader social and demographic trends. An ageing population, increasing urbanisation, and rising temperatures are already affecting public health in Sweden and are expected to intensify in the future. Sweden's population, infrastructure and buildings, as well as its ecosystems, are adapted to a climate that is already changing.
According to the Public Health Agency of Sweden's current risk and vulnerability analysis for the health consequences of climate change, heat waves are the most significant health risk in Sweden. In addition to this, high risks are also identified for flooding, waterborne infections, pollen allergies, forest fires, air pollution, tick-borne infections, and landslides. Medium-level risks include foodborne infections, drought, impact on drinking water quality and the consequences of warmer winters.
There are strong links and potential synergies between climate action and public health. To use this potential, we need to deepen our understanding of how climate-related measures affect human health, and to strengthen knowledge of how these efforts can be highlighted, further developed and implemented in Sweden. Measures that reduce emissions can provide both direct and indirect health benefits, such as improved air quality, increased physical activity and healthier diets.
Climate change can also affect people's mental health and well-being, both directly and indirectly. Direct effects can arise from trauma caused by natural events such as floods, forest fires or heat waves, as well as loss of property, livelihoods or cultural environments. Indirect effects can include anxiety about climate change and its consequences, and what kind of future we face. Certain groups are more exposed and vulnerable to the effects of climate change, which risks widening health inequalities. By preventing current and future climate-related health risks – such as heat stress, air pollution, and the spread of infectious diseases – emission-reduction efforts can be seen as investments in both climate resilience and healthier living environments.
The effects of climate change – and the associated health consequences – vary geographically across Sweden. This requires a broad range of knowledge and efforts that are adapted to regional conditions and needs. To reduce the negative health impacts of climate change in Sweden, in-depth knowledge of local effects and the development of action plans that strengthen society's resilience and adaptability are required. Sweden can benefit from extensive international research and experience, but there is a clear need for more research that is specifically relevant to Swedish conditions – taking into account geographical and cultural variations, social structures and the needs of different groups.
Overall, there is a wide range of research and innovation needs relating to climate and health. Researchers and societal actors can work together to help prepare cities, communities and individuals for inevitable changes – such as changing precipitation patterns and heat waves – and reduce the resulting health risks. This may include fields of study such as psychology, behavioural science, spread of diseases, preparedness and spatial planning. There are many interdependencies and potential synergies between climate action and public health, which can be both strengthened and weakened in a changing climate.
This call for proposals aims to support research that contributes to a deeper understanding of the connections between climate and human health and strengthens society's capacity to protect and promote public health in Sweden in a changing climate. We welcome interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary projects that combine, for example, climate science, public health, social sciences and environmental psychology.
Sweden needs new knowledge about how we can protect and promote public health in light of climate change. This is a broad approach and covers a variety of perspectives which may include:
- Integrating the health perspective into efforts to reduce emissions and adapt to climate change. Decision-makers need evidence-based insights showing the risks and opportunities associated with reducing emissions and adapting to climate change, as well as how global climate change affects local conditions and public health.
- Cost and socio-economic analysis of health effects linked to climate change. Knowledge about the effectiveness and health benefits of various climate adaptation and emission measures. Quantification of the potential health and socio-economic gains from reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
- Monitoring and warning systems, as well as interdisciplinary methods and data. Strengthened integration of monitoring and warning systems for climate-related health risks, such as extreme weather events, infectious diseases and air pollution, tailored to the needs of the health sector. Integration of climate data, health data and socio-economic information, as well as development of systems and models to predict future health risks related to climate change.
- Built environment and climate adaptation with a focus on health. Knowledge of how extreme weather events such as floods, storms, landslides, heat waves, droughts and wildfires affect different building structures in Sweden and what consequences this has for public health. This includes, for example, urban heat island effects and how today's indoor environments may pose risks to vulnerable groups who need support and adaptation measures.
- Mental health and well-being. Knowledge of how climate change can affect mental health and well-being both directly and indirectly. Certain vulnerable groups are at higher risk, which may contribute to increased inequalities.
- Extreme weather and health impacts. Knowledge about how more frequent and intensified extreme weather events – such as heat waves, floods, storms, landslides, droughts, and forest fires – affect people's health in Sweden, and how they can be prevented.
It is already the most exposed and vulnerable groups in society that are at risk of being affected the most by climate change, both in Sweden and globally. These groups are at risk of being disproportionately affected by the effects of climate change, both economically and socially. More knowledge is needed about who these groups are, how they are affected, and which measures can be taken to prevent and mitigate these impacts. There is also a need for deeper understanding of how equality perspectives can be integrated into climate adaptation and emission reduction measures in order to maximise health benefits and, in particular, strengthen the protection of vulnerable groups. Climate justice and equality perspectives are therefore important aspects that need to be included in decision-making processes and policy work in order to maximise health benefits and minimise unintended harm and increased inequalities.
We welcome projects that promote decisive action and concrete measures that strengthen society's resilience to the impact of climate change, while simultaneously promoting public health. Projects do not need to focus exclusively on Swedish conditions, but they must have clear relevance for strengthening society's capacity to protect and promote public health in Sweden in a changing climate.
The following types of projects are not eligible for funding under this call:
- Projects that focus on developing technologies or materials.
- Projects focusing on animal health.
- Projects concerning the health sector's transition to fossil-free energy and circular solutions in either the private or public sector.
- Projects focusing on the working environment without a direct link to climate change.
Projects focusing on forests and well-being and the links between them are referred to Formas' call Forests and People: Towards a more robust knowledge base on health, well-being and individual forest owners External link., which you can find more information about at the link.
Research projects that are deemed to fall outside the scope and focus of the call cannot receive funding and will be rejected before preparation. The assessment of whether an application falls within the scope of the call is based on a complete application and takes place only after the call has closed.
Knowledge from the projects should be communicated to relevant target groups outside academia. We welcome projects that collaborate with societal actors to create conditions for practical application. Research results should develop, improve and promote climate and health communication that reaches and has an impact on society and increases knowledge about the risks and protection against the health aspects of climate change. The results should be actively communicated to relevant actors, for example through recommendations to primary target groups, policy briefs, popular science publications or other innovative efforts for communication and dialogue. A concrete plan for communication should be presented in the application and will be included in the assessment. We welcome interdisciplinary research and projects that include collaboration with actors outside academia, but this is not a requirement for funding.
The call is aimed at individuals with a doctoral degree who are employed at a Swedish university, university college, research institute or government agency with a research assignment that meets Formas’ requirements for fund administrators. The principal applicant and co-applicants must have completed their doctoral degrees by the closing date of the call. The same person may only be the principal applicant in one application within the call, but the same person may be a participating researcher in several applications.
Formas works to promote equal, equitable and inclusive social development. Applicants should design their projects so that the results can benefit a diversity of people and groups in society. The project team should be composed with regard to gender distribution and different backgrounds. However, this will not be part of the assessment of your application.
Before you apply
All information about what your application should contain, how to apply and the assessment process can be found in the text below.
Grants from this call may only be administered by a Swedish university, college, research institute, authority with a research mandate or other organisation whose main activity is research. Who can be a fund administrator? External link.
To be eligible to apply for a grant under this call, the following requirements must be met:
- The principal applicant must have completed a doctoral degree (no later than the closing date of the call).
- Participating researchers must have completed a doctoral degree (no later than the closing date of the call). Other personnel participating in the project do not need to have completed a doctoral degree.

Principal applicants may submit a maximum of one project application.
When you apply for funding for a project, you can apply for funding for both direct and indirect costs. Direct costs include salaries, equipment and travel. Indirect costs are costs that are shared with others within the organisation, such as administration, IT and rent. Indirect costs are sometimes referred to as overhead costs.
State aid does not apply in this call, which means that organisations engaged in economic activities cannot apply for funding from Formas in this call.
Due to the war in Ukraine, it will not be possible to obtain funding for projects involving research collaboration with state or federal research institutions in Russia and Belarus.
In this call, it is possible to apply for projects lasting three or four years with a total budget of a maximum of 9 million SEK per project.
Please note that the total salary amount received by an individual researcher, doctoral student or other staff member may not exceed 100 per cent of a full-time position. This means that additional funding for salaries cannot be granted to researchers, doctoral students or other staff who already receive grants with full salary funding.
The project is to start on 1 November 2026, and the start date is managed in Prisma. The project has a disposition period of 12 months. This means that the project has an additional year after the end of the project period to complete the project. It also means that the start of the project can be postponed by up to 12 months and the project must still be completed within the set time frame.
You should write your application in English, as the review panel that assesses the application consists of both national and international reviewers. If you choose to write in Swedish, the application will be translated into English before assessment. Please note that you will not be able to see or make changes to the translated text before the application is forwarded to the review panel. The popular science description should be written in Swedish, while the summaries should be in both Swedish and English.
Under Swedish law, your application (including appendices) is considered a public document once it has been submitted to us. This means that anyone can request and access your application. Information can only be concealed if it is covered by confidentiality under the Public Access to Information and Secrecy Act (2009:400).
Formas has limited opportunities to classify personal data as confidential. Therefore, the application should not contain personal data for anyone other than those participating in the application. Nor should the application contain sensitive personal data, unless it is clearly relevant to the project.
If the project is awarded funding, the popular science description and project summaries in Swedish and English will be published in open project databases without confidentiality assessment. Therefore, avoid writing sensitive information in these sections.
At present, we see no problem with you as an applicant using AI as an aid when preparing your application. However, it is important that you are aware that the responsibility for fulfilling the commitments you make in the application lies with you as the applicant. It is the applicant’s responsibility to ensure that the content of both the application and the project plan is correct and that the research is carried out as described. You certify this when you submit your application. As an applicant, you must follow good research practice during the application process, which means that plagiarism, falsification or fabrication of content in the application must not occur.
At Formas, we care about ensuring that the projects we fund are carried out in a way that maximises positive and minimises negative impacts on the environment and climate. We therefore encourage you to design your project so that collaboration takes place primarily through digital meeting formats and that any necessary travel is carried out in the most climate-smart way possible. We also suggest that you include measures to minimise energy use and other resource consumption, emissions and waste in your project planning. However, this will not be part of the assessment of your application.

Budget
The project budget is reported in Prisma. Please note that the budget and budget specification should be written in English; a Swedish budget specification will not be translated but will be reviewed by the international review panel as it is. In Prisma, the entire amount requested is written out, for example, 1 million Swedish kronor is written as 1,000,000 Swedish kronor.
The budget is described in terms of:
Salaries, including social security contributions for each project participant. The amount you can be granted for the salary of an individual researcher, doctoral student or other staff member may never exceed 100 per cent of a full-time position. This also means that someone who has full salary funding for the entire project period cannot receive additional funds for salary. Researchers who are fully retired cannot receive funding for their own salary.
Percentage of salary refers to the percentage of the applicant's full-time salary that corresponds to the salary in the project.
The level of activity in the project refers to how many per cent of a full-time position the participant contributes. It shows whether the applicant contributes in-kind or other funding to complete the project.
Operating costs refer to, for example, consumables, travel and conferences. They may also refer to publication in journals and databases that apply open access. Formas only grants funding for certain author fees. Read more under the heading Costs of publication External link.. Specify operating costs in accordance with the practices of the fund administrator.
Salary can be applied for researchers, PhD students, and other staff to the extent that they work on the project. If you are applying for consultancy services, it should be budgeted under this item in the application.
Equipment and depreciation costs. Specify equipment and depreciation costs for equipment if relevant to the application.
Premises. You can apply for funding for premises costs if they are not already included in the overhead costs in the project budget. Specify premises costs in accordance with the practices of the funding administrator.
Total requested/Subtotal refers to costs already specified in the previous budget tables and which will be automatically transferred to these items.
Indirect costs refer to overheads.
Indirect costs are divided into three levels:
- Universities and colleges may add a surcharge for indirect costs in accordance with the full cost principle they apply. Universities and colleges only need to report eligible costs corresponding to the grant amount separately in their accounts.
- The following organisations may, when participating in the project with non-economic activities, include actual indirect costs up to a maximum of 45 per cent of their eligible salary costs:
2.1 research organisations that are
- limited companies or trading companies in which the state exercises direct or indirect legal control, or
- foundations in which the government appoints one or more board members
2.2 government agencies (other than universities and colleges) that are required by their instructions to conduct their own research,
The condition of a maximum of 45 per cent applies provided that the organisation receives funding from the government to conduct independent research. If the organisation also conducts economic activities such as contract research, these activities must be reported separately. If the organisation participates in the project with economic activities, the condition in 3) below applies.
- Other project partners may claim actual indirect costs, but not exceeding an amount corresponding to 30 per cent of their eligible salary costs.
If funds are to be transferred from the fund administrator to another organisation participating in the project, the recipient organisation’s overhead costs may instead be applied to the funds being transferred. Explain and report the various overhead costs in the budget specification. The total overhead costs for the project must be stated in the budget table. Formas does not grant funds for overheads on costs that you write off for equipment or premises.
Other costs refer to funds that are not applied for but are relevant to the completion of the project. An example is co-funding from partners or if the project receives funds from other sources.
Total cost refers to a budget summary.
The budget specification explains the budget in words. Specify how the grant applied for is distributed in terms of amount per year and total amount per organisation if funds are to be transferred to another organisation. Provide a brief justification for the salary costs specified in the budget. All other costs must be justified, such as participation in conferences, fees for open access to publications and data, etc. A description of the project's total budget, including funding from other sources, must also be included. The budget specification is part of the assessment. The budget specification is written in English (max. 7,000 characters including spaces).
Ethics
You must state whether there are any special ethical aspects to the project. If so, you must describe the ethical issues involved and how you plan to deal with them. This may, for example, concern research that utilises personal data or research that involves experiments on humans or animals.
If you are conducting research on humans, human tissue or sensitive personal data, you must submit an application for ethical review to the Swedish Ethical Review Authority and obtain approval. If the research involves experiments on animals, you must also obtain approval from an animal ethics committee. You can apply for this via the Swedish Board of Agriculture's e-service.
You must state in your application whether or not you have valid ethical approval. If you do not have it, and your application is granted funding, you must have ethical approval before the described experiments begin.
If your research is not expected to involve anything that requires ethical approval, you must state this and explain how and why.
Classifications
Formas uses the project classifications in analyses and documentation at an overall level. The classifications are made by the applicant specifying the subject area, research topic (SCB code), at least one global sustainable development goal to which the project can contribute, and keywords.

Our reviewers are currently not allowed to use AI tools to support the review of applications. There are several reasons for this. First, there is a high risk that uploaded information will be disseminated further. There are also risks related to confidentiality and the processing of personal data. Uploading an application or information from an application to any form of AI tool constitutes unauthorised dissemination of information. This applies not only to AI tools but also to many other services and tools for storing and sharing data.
Decisions on which projects will be awarded funding are expected to be made on 20 October 2026. We will publish the decisions no later than the following day on Formas’ website, and you will receive an email when you can view the decision in Prisma. Grant decisions cannot be appealed.
All approved projects must report back to Formas on finances and project results three months after the end of the allocation period. For projects longer than 18 months, a financial status report must also be submitted to Formas annually. All reports are submitted in Prisma.
