Sandpit workshop: Get seed funding for your sustainable behaviour research!

Find information about the seed funding opportunity here: Call for proposals

Do you want to start off the new academic year strong? The Special Interest Group on Sustainable Behaviour is offering seed funding to set up collaborations within the SIG: three projects will each receive €1.000. You could use the funding to organise a workshop, recruit participants, or cover materials for your collaboration — or come up with your own ideas, as long as the research links to sustainable behaviour.

Join this sandpit workshop to meet other members, learn more about the funding opportunity, and get started on your proposal right away. The session is open to all members of the SIG mailing list, from master thesis supervisors to junior and senior staff — feel free to bring colleagues or fellow students along. The only requirement is that at least one applicant is part of the Copernicus Institute. 

Afterwards, submit your one-page proposal by 30 September, 17:00, to c.m.j.slikkerveer@uu.nl. Winners will be announced by 7 October, so you can get started early in the new academic year!

Although you can also attend unanounced, we would also appreciate it if you send a confirmation of attendance to c.m.j.slikkerveer@uu.nl.
