Global Engagement Seed Grants 2021: call now open

Global Engagement Seed Grants support neuroscience societies, groups and organisations in the Asia/Pacific, African, Latin American, Middle Eastern and Pan-European regions that would like to conduct outreach events and activities in their local areas in 2021.

These are offered as part of the IBRO-led Global Engagement Initiative, formerly known as the Global Advocacy Initiative which was launched in 2012.

Proposed events and activities should address the specific needs of neuroscience engagement and outreach in the country where they are being held. They can include activities such as public lectures and public fairs; advocacy events with policymakers, educators, the media and the public; the development of educational videos or multimedia products to increase awareness; and other similar activities.

Please note that Global Engagement Seed Grants are not for scientific research, scientific meetings, travel grants or research staff support.

Up to 5,000€ will be awarded for each successful proposal.
