About
The University of Manchester–Tel Aviv University Global Fund supports the development of new and existing research collaborations with the aim of generating joint publications in leading academic journals and/or competitive external research funding applications. Projects should combine collaborative research with partnership-building activities, such as exchange visits, workshops, networking, or access to specialized research facilities, while demonstrating a clear pathway toward long-term research outcomes.
Proposals should involve a small network of researchers from both institutions, including at least one Early Career Researcher from the University of Manchester.
Projects must align with one of the University's four broad strategic research priority areas: Creative Industries, Digital Futures, Healthier Futures, or Sustainable Futures.
These themes are intentionally broad and interdisciplinary, and applicants are encouraged to interpret them in the context of their own research expertise and collaborative project.
Funding from the University of Manchester will be up to £5,000 per project to support the participation of University of Manchester researchers.
Tel Aviv University will provide up to ₪21,000 per project to support the participation of TAU researchers for a period of 18 months.
