Goals

The purpose of this call is to promote multi-perspective research on how global mobility influences general health, various health determinants and the well-being of local and mobile populations, and how the effects of mobility can be addressed in a sustainable way. Furthermore, proposals that challenge current dogmas in Global Medicine and Health research are welcome;
In this call the Foundation want to support research that benefits the fields of Global Medicine and Health Research in a sustainable manner, creating additional value beyond the funding period. The Foundation aim to fund projects that are highly original and innovative, and which address understudied and underfunded research areas;
The Foundation want to fund research that enables scientists and academics from the so-called High-Income Countries (HICs) and Low and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs) to work together on an equal footing and in which all parties benefit from the joint research work. Engagement of early career researchers is highly encouraged.
