Apply for a Virtual International Cooperation Projects grant
In a Virtual International Cooperation Project (VIS) Dutch and foreign students work together remotely on a project that links local issues to an international perspective. If you are a lecturer or educationalist and would like to develop a VIS project for students from Leiden and a university abroad, submit a grant application as soon as possible to subsidy adviser Kathelijne Smits. If your project proposal is approved, the University will receive €15,000 from the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport to free up your schedule to give you time to develop the project.
How to apply
- Get written permission from your institute / supervisor.
- Fill in this form. Please note: the answers to the questions must be provided in Dutch.
- Send the form to Kathelijne Smits by 09:00 on Thursday 17 February so the proposal can be signed by the Executive Board and submitted to the Ministry.
- Applications will be assessed in order of receipt – the sooner you apply, the greater your chance of being awarded the grant.
