The Co-operative Research Programme (CRP) of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) has opened its call for applications for funding conferences and research fellowship grants in 2021. The deadline to submit an application is Thursday, September 10, 2020 at midnight, Central European Summer Time (CEST).
The CRP is open to applicants in any of the countries participating in this OECD program, including Canada. It is intended for scientists who have completed their postdoctoral studies.
The main goal of the CRP is to strengthen scientific knowledge and provide relevant scientific information that will support future policy development related to the sustainable use of natural resources, in the areas of food, agriculture, forests and fisheries.
The CRP focuses on two types of activities: research fellowships and conferences.
These activities must support one of the following three research themes:
- Managing capital for the future
- Managing risks in a connected world
- Transformational technologies and innovation
More information, as well as application forms and guidelines, is available on the OECD website: www.oecd.org/agriculture/crp/.
