Calls

NWO provides a limited palette of funding lines, each with its own distinctive objective. Search here in the range of current calls. It is possible to filter by disciplines, status (upcoming, open or closed), form of financing or on for whom the calls are specifically designed.

Brief explanation per status: 

  • In preparation: pre-announcements of calls NWO expects to publish.
  • Upcoming: calls that have been notified to the Government Gazette (in Dutch: Staatscourant) and will open after publication on the NWO website.
  • Open for applications / letter of intent / pre-proposals: NWO may ask for a letter of intent and/or a pre-proposal to be submitted prior to the full application. 
  • In progress: the application procedure has started. Submitting applications is no longer possible.
  • Continuous: a funding request can often be submitted at several points in the year. 
  • Closed: the application process is now closed.
