Grant instrument "Strengthening knowledge cooperation in space"
In collaboration with the Dutch Research Council (NWO) we intend to open a new grant instrument for the support of existing Expertise Networks in Q2 2025.
The new grant instrument ‘Strengthening knowledge cooperation in space’ is aimed at existing Expertise Networks that have been established under the Expertise Networks scheme around the development and use of space instruments for various substantive themes. The funding is intended to support Expertise Networks whose initial project subsidy has ended, in their continuation and the updating of their composition. This grant instrument is a joint call from NWO and the Netherlands Space Office.
Grant instrument "Principal Investigator support"
In collaboration with the Dutch Research Council (NWO) we intend to open a new grant instrument for the support of Principal Investigators in Q2 2025.
The call ‘Principal Investigator (PI) support’ is aimed at supporting researchers in the Netherlands with a PI, or co-I, role for a space mission, experiment or instrument, to enable them to fulfil that role more effectively. The funding is also intended to enable the Dutch scientific field to benefit more from existing Dutch PI positions. This grant instrument is a joint call from NWO and the Netherlands Space Office.
