BELSPO will launch a new call in the frame of the Science 4 Policy research programme which will open 11 June.
This call for proposals relates to the “policy-driven projects” of the S4Policy programme. These projects are submitted by the federal departments and call for a scientific support from the Belgian academic community. These projects aim either at an academic support to reinforce analytical capacities within federal departments or provide scientific evidence to inform federal policies. These policy-focused projects are based on a co-funding mechanism under which BELSPO finances a large proportion of the total project budget (sometimes up to 90%).
Deadline: 25 June 2026 (pre-submission); 1 October 2026 (final submission)
