When is the application deadline?
For Project grants and Saving Lives at Birth grants, the application deadline is 1st April and 1st October every year. For Program support and the Bjørn Lind stipend, the application deadline is 1st April every year.
Does the application have to be written in English?
The board prefers applications to be written in English. However, applications in Norwegian, Swedish and Danish will also be accepted.
Which costs are covered by a grant? Indirect cost/salary/infringement costs?
The Foundation will only cover costs directly related to the project. Institutional overhead costs can be covered up to 10%. It is important that costs that can be covered from other sources, as well as applications submitted to other possible funding agencies are specified in the budget overview of the application.
If the total budget exceeds the amount limit for awards from the Foundation, it is important that the application includes a description on how the remaining costs will be covered.
When can I expect feedback to my application?
All applicants will receive a confirmation e-mail once an application has been submitted. The confirmation e-mail will indicate when an evaluation can be expected. Results and feedback from the Foundation Board evaluation will usually be available 6-8 weeks after the application deadline.
