As part of its mission is to develop a barrier-free and continuously growing cooperation the 4EU+ European University Alliance is launching the second round of the SEED4EU+ initiative. With a particular emphasis on research activities, this call seeks to provide seed funding for the implementation of novel ideas to foster 4EU+ cooperation and contribute to the realisation of the 4EU+ mission. It offers our academic community the opportunity to collaborate on out-of-the-box initiatives that do not necessarily fit into customary calls for proposals, thus allowing them to broaden their creative horizons. Academic staff at the 8 member universities of the Alliance is encouraged to submit joint, innovative proposals that will make a significant impact on strengthening 4EU+ and our strategic partnership, broaden the engagement of the communities of all 4EU+ universities in developing our One Comprehensive Research-Intensive European University further and contribute to the general sustainability of cooperation within 4EU+.

The programme is funded directly from the budgets of 4EU+ member universities.

All proposals must be submitted electronically via the online application form no later than by 30 September 2024 17:00 CET.
