Funding, News and Announcements

SSHRC has announced Open Research Area 8 in partnership with ANR (France), DFG (Germany), and ESRC (UK).

There is a possibility for cooperation partners in Japan (if applicable) to obtain special funding from a Japanese funding agency. The Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) will provide an independent funding opportunity on an application basis, to support cooperation partners in Japan involved in successful proposals.

The scheme will provide funding for integrated projects by researchers coming from at least three of the four subscribing countries.

Proposals may involve any of the disciplines, thematic areas or approaches eligible for SSHRC funding. However, disciplinary coverage varies according to which national agencies are involved.

Canadian researchers are eligible for up to $200,000/year for two to three years, for a maximum of $600,000.
