Objective

The aim of the proposed collaborative grant programme is to strengthen European collaboration in the field of the humanities, and with this programme more specifically the collaboration between Flanders and the Netherlands.

The research programme will finance projects from two researchers: one employed by a Dutch University and one by a Flemish university with the aim of maximising the benefits from the scientific complementarity between both researchers so that the collaboration yields added value. The intended added value of the collaboration is a condition for submitting a proposal.

The financing partners shall make use of a coordinated peer-review procedure and a joint selection procedure. Grants will be awarded by the researcher’s own research council (FWO or NWO) according to the prevailing funding conditions there.

Within the framework of the Lead Agency Approach, FWO and NWO/GW have made agreements about the evaluation and processing of proposals for transnational collaborative projects. Under this agreement the research councils take it in turns to be the Lead Agent.
