There are new funding opportunities for researchers in Egypt under the Newton-Mosharafa Fund. The British Council announced opening a new call for applications under the Newton Institutional Links program, offering grants of up to GBP 50-300k. The program — which “is designed to establish links beyond the level of the individual researcher and innovation practitioner, opening up opportunities for more sustainable, solution-oriented collaborations between academic groups as well as with the private sector” — prioritizes the areas of “affordable and inclusive health care, renewable energy, sustainable food production, and sustainable water management.”
