Nordforsk network funding for Indigenous perspectives in research

Nordforsk will fund two to four Nordic knowledge-sharing and capacity-building networks for researchers working with research relevant to Indigenous peoples and/or Indigenous research. Deadline: 24 September 2024.

Themes of the call

The overall aim for the call is to in the long term contribute to sustainable and ethically sound development of communities and areas where Indigenous peoples have interests, and thus contribute to maintaining trust and unity in the Nordic region.

All relevant themes, subjects, subject areas and disciplines of research are eligible.  All Nordic countries must be able to participate in the funded networks and in network-initiated activities.

The networks should be led by an early-career researcher, and it will be an advantage if several young researchers are given central tasks in the networking project.

Eligibility

The  project must include partners from research performing organisations in at least three Nordic countries. Nordic countries are defined here as Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Faroe Islands, Greenland, and Ă…land.

Funding

The amount of funding available to Nordic partners in a network is up to NOK 1 million. Funded networks shall have a duration of two years.
