Launch third call for proposals Food & Business Applied Research Fund (ARF)

NWO-WOTRO has launched the third call for proposals for the Food & Business Applied Research Fund (ARF). ARF provides grants to applied research contributing to innovation for food security and private sector development in the 15 partner countries of Dutch development cooperation. The call has been developed in close collaboration with the Food & Business Knowledge Platform. Please note that some changes have been made in this call for proposals as compared to the previous two calls. Most notably with regard to the foci of the call, the additional option to have a different focus on two countries (Bangladesh and Kenya) and the reimbursable costs.

Proposals may be submitted by consortia consisting of at least one private or public practitioners organization active in the partner countries and one research or higher education organization. One Dutch partner is required. Please note that the deadlines for submission are July 5, 2016 and December 6, 2016. The call for proposals, application form and format consortium agreement can be downloaded at the website of NWO-WOTRO.
