Nessling foundation grants 2023

In the general grant call, we are looking for innovative projects and active researchers that enable or support sustainability transformations with respect for natural systems.

We provide funding for projects that contribute to the Nessling Foundation’s mission to seek systemic solutions for an ecologically sustainable future.

In the general grant call, we award funding for three purposes. You can apply for:

  *  personal grants for doctoral thesis researchers (for a maximum of 4 years)

  *  personal grants for post-doc researchers (for a maximum of 2 years)

  *  grants for implementation projects where research is put into practical use through cooperation between the producers and users of knowledge.
