The Czech Science Foundation (GA ČR) in cooperation with the Polish agency National Science Center (NCN) announces a call for submission of project proposals based on the principle of Lead Agency evaluation, with the expected start of implementation in 2026. GA ČR acts as a partner organization in this call - projects evaluated by NCN and GA CR accepts the evaluation.

Objectives

The proposal will be prepared by the Polish side according to NCN rules. In GRIS,  the proposal prepared by the Czech applicant should contain: information about the budget, description of budget utilization, information about the applicant for the Czech side, his/her CV). Instead of the scientific part C1 of the proposal, the Czech applicant will attach the submitted Polish proposal.

The deadline for submitting an NCN proposal in Poland is 12th December 2024.

Limitations

The projects submitted to this call will be included in the maximum number of project proposals submitted to the calls with the expected start of the implementation in 2026. Thus, the Czech applicant of the proposal to this call will no longer be able to submit a project proposal as an applicant in the spring (2025) GA CR call.

Project duration 2-3 years (the same project duration for both partners).
