What is the Satakunta Regional Fund?
The Satakunta Regional Fund is devoted to promoting and developing the arts, the sciences, and other fields of endeavour in the region – by providing annual grants and awards and supporting other activities.
The Satakunta Regional Fund comprises a General Fund and donation- and bequest-based donor funds. Grants made from the latter are directed towards areas specified by the donor when making his or her bequest. Areas not covered by this procedure are supported from the general funds.
The Fund’s activities and decision-making are impartial and not linked to political parties or other organisations or associations. Grants made by the Fund are decided by an Administrative Council that reflects a wide range of expertise and knowledge in the arts, the sciences, society, and business in the region.
Satakunta Grants
The grants of the regional fund January application round are divided into working and expenditure grants. In addition to these, grants will be awarded for special purposes.
What kinds of grants do we award and to whom?
Grants from the Satakunta Fund are available for projects in all fields of science and art.
In addition to the general fund, grants are awarded, amongst others, from the Aili Nurminen Fund, which primarily supports female researchers in writing their doctoral dissertations in the fields of physics or meteorology and, secondarily, studies in the aforementioned fields.
