The aim of this funding measure is to support the Ukrainian scientific landscape in maintaining its existing scientific potential and expanding its research capacities. This should also reduce the exodus from the Ukrainian science system and promote brain circulation between Germany and Ukraine. At the same time, Germany’s position as a key partner of Ukraine in the field of research and innovation is to be strengthened and German universities and non-university research institutions are to be given the opportunity to develop new cooperation approaches with partners from Ukraine.
The project outlines must be submitted by 31.01.2025 at the latest. The project outline must be submitted by the German applicant or consortium together with at least one or more scientific institutions from Ukraine.
