Funding, News and Announcements

This program, open to every field of expertise, provides funding for new scientific projects jointly developed by French and Canadian teams that have never worked together before. This program is meant to initiate new partnerships in research between France and Canada, and research teams must include students and young researchers.

Funding of $8,000 - $15,000 will be awarded for two years, with the majority of funds awarded for mobility.

NEW for the 2023 edition: Out of the up to 20 selected projects, up to eight collaborative projects covering one of the two priority themes could be funded. The two priority themes detailed in Appendix 1 are:

• Healthy aging in our societies: A cross perspective of social sciences and technologies
• Energy Transition: New Technologies with a Societal Impact

Full details of this call can be found here.

Dalhousie is limited to submitting five applications to this competition, and an internal NOI will be required. Please contact ird@dal.ca with a one paragraph summary of your project and list of research team members by Tuesday, October 25.
