Die Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft DFG und die Russische Wissenschaftsstiftung RSF haben eine gemeinsame Ausschreibung zur Förderung von deutsch-russischen Projekten in den Bereichen Lebens-, Sozial- und Geisteswissenschaften veröffentlicht.

To facilitate the support of collaborative work between German and Russian research groups, the Life Sciences and Social and Humanities Divisions of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation) and the Russian Science Foundation (RSF) have opened the possibility for joint German-Russian project proposals in the fields covered by these divisions. Collaborations of research teams from both countries are invited to submit joint proposals.

At the DFG these proposals are submitted in the funding scheme „Sachbeihilfe/Research Grants“ and will be reviewed in competition with all other proposals in this scheme. It is important to note that there are no separate funds available for these efforts, proposals must succeed on the strengths of their intellectual merit and teams in competition with all other proposals in the funding scheme “Sachbeihilfe/Research Grants”. At the RSF the proposals will be part of an open public competition for the activity “Basic Scientific Research and Exploratory Scientific Research, Conducted by International Research Teams”.

All proposals will be reviewed by both organisations separately. The results of the review process will be shared between the agencies. Support will be granted for those proposals where both DFG and RSF recommend funding.
