Ref.:    (LML) Announcement LRI call for proposals – Budget round 2020

From:  Nicole Dinnissen, Amsterdam, the Netherlands


Dear All,

The Leprosy Research Initiative (LRI) is pleased to announce a call for proposals for funding commencing in 2020. LRI funds research with a focus on leprosy – including research applications combining leprosy with other neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) or other diseases that share cross-cutting issues with leprosy.

Eligibility criteria:

  • The main topic of the study should fall within one of the agreed priority areas (www.leprosyresearch.org).
  • Research results should be directly applicable to leprosy services or to the wellbeing of persons affected by leprosy.
  • Preference will be given to proposals from or in close collaboration with institutions or organisations in endemic countries.
  • For research related to disability, proposals should clearly state how persons with disabilities will be involved in the various stages and levels of the project planning, execution and management.
  • Project duration should not exceed four years (48 months).
  • By way of guidance a project budget should not normally exceed €50,000 per year (with a maximum of four years).

Researchers interested to apply for funding by the LRI are invited to complete and submit a Letter of Intent (LoI), giving an outline of the intended research. The LoIs should be submitted using the LRI Grant Application portal – which can be accessed via https://leprosyresearch.flexigrant.com/ . Note – that this is the first year that the LRI is using an online Application Portal. We strongly advise you to take sufficient time to enter all the required data in the system.

LoIs should be submitted by February 28th, 2019 at 23:59 (Amsterdam date and time) after which the application portal will be closed.

This letter will be screened by the LRI Steering Committee (SC). If the feedback by the SC is positive, the applicants will be invited to submit a full proposal before the next deadline (June 1st, 2019).

 

With kind regards,

 

The LRI team
