Who can apply for funding?
Universities, colleges, research institutes and their affiliated researchers represent our main applicant groups. But many others can also apply for funding from us – special interest groups, private companies (except sole proprietors), associations, municipalities, county councils, and other government agencies that are not higher education institutions.
Which call should I choose?
The type of project you need to fund determines the type of call that can be relevant to you. Each call shows what is required and who can therefore be granted funding.
What requirements do I need to meet?
In order for you to receive funding, the grant money that Formas pays out must be managed by a so-called administrating organisation. The administrating organisation is the organisation that receives the grant money from Formas. There are additional requirements for the person who is applying for funding, depending on the type of funding. For example, a doctoral degree might be required.
