The Netherlands Demographic Society offers a “Seed Grant” to young researchers (master and PHD students), working at the intersection of demography and society, to provide extra financial means that will help them in their research project.
The NVD makes a €1500 budget available annually for circumscribed research activities, such as additional data collection, coding or transcription of qualitative interviews, or visiting a conference or workshop to present a paper. The Seed Grant is specifically intended for young researchers who want to stimulate their own research.
Procedure:
- Write a proposal with your idea (max. 1 A4, including budget)
- Applications up to a maximum budget of €1,500 can be submitted
- Submit before October 1st, via info@nvdemografie.nl
- A jury will evaluate the applications
- The outcome will be announced at the Dutch Demography Day
- The grant will have to be used in the following calendar year.
- Whenever there are too few (good quality) applications, the jury may decide not to award the Grant that year.
