Research for development
Georg Forster Research Fellowships for highly qualified researchers from developing and emerging countries
With the Georg Forster Research Fellowships, the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation provides support for excellent postdoctoral and experienced researchers from developing and emerging countries (excluding China and India) to carry out research projects with an academic host in Germany.
Projects of relevance to development are eligible for sponsorship.
Apart from this, there are no quotas for specific subjects or countries of origin.
Applicants are free to choose their research projects as well as their collaborative partners in Germany. Any academic actively working at a German research institution can become a host.
Postdoctoral researchers may apply for a period of 6 to 24 months, experienced researchers for a period of 6 to 18 months (which can be divided into three stays).
Fellowships are awarded on the basis of the applicant's academic record, the quality of the project proposal and its relevance to development.
Applications may be submitted at any time.
