New Research Programme within humanities and social sciences
Future Challenges in the Nordics – People, Culture and Society is a seven-year research programme that stimulates research within humanities and social sciences in the Nordics. The programme focuses on the large societal challenges of the 21st century and how those challenges are understood and handled within the Nordic societies.
The research programme finances a set number of research projects. The aim is that the research benefits society by producing findings that are easy for citizens and decision-makers to access.
The research programme is financed by The Finnish Cultural Foundation, The Society of Swedish Literature in Finland, Riksbankens Jubileumsfond, The Swedish Cultural Foundation in Finland and Stiftelsen Brita Maria Renlunds minne.
The application for the programme is completed in two steps. In the first step, stage 1, a shorter application is submitted. Every application in stage 1 is evaluated by a panel of experts who choose which projects will go forward. The chosen projects are invited to submit a complete application in stage 2.
The application period for the first application is from 1st of January to 15th of February 2021.
