The Early-Career Grants aim to promote research in all Latin American countries and to support fieldwork in the region.

Call Details

The Early-Career Grant, formerly the ‘Mobility Grant’, specifically targets emerging researchers (PostDocs and PhD students). It allows for the integration of the next generation of scientists in international collaboration, helps to build new networks through personal contacts and mutual trust, and makes partnerships more sustainable. Furthermore, Early-Career Grants offer a possibility to encourage Swiss researchers to boost their studies with a stay and fieldwork in Latin America without being part of a team or academic group.

Eligibility:

The call is open to researchers enrolled in Swiss institutions in a PhD or Postdoc program in any scientific discipline or field. All researchers of Swiss federal and cantonal universities, universities of applied sciences, universities of teachers’ education, and public research institutions are entitled to apply. Research institutions in Switzerland must be accredited by swissuniversities.
