In recognition of the value of international co-operation in academic and scientific research, a collaborative academic research programme was established between the Netherlands and the United Kingdom in 1990. After seventeen years of working with NWO, the British Council now has a new partner; as from 2008 the UK-Netherlands Partnership Programme in Science will be jointly run and financed by the British Council and Platform Bèta Techniek.
The next deadline for applications is 3 August 2009
The aim of the British Council Partnership Programme in science is to enable early-stage and talented researchers from higher education institutions in the two countries to meet, exchange ideas and engage in scientific and academic research collaboration. This competitive programme provides a grant-in-aid towards the cost of international travel and accommodation for collaborative research visits and workshops/seminars.
