Calls for Applications

Upcoming FFU call delayed

The current 2026 application round has been delayed due to the Danish parliamentary election in spring 2026 and the subsequent period of government formation.

Information on the consequences for the current application round, including the revised timeline, is available on the DFC website here.

The situation also affects the timing of the forthcoming research call. Danida Fellowship Centre expects clarification from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark on key dates for the next FFU call in early 2027. Updates will be posted on the DFC website and in the newsletter.

Universities and research institutions can apply for support to research collaboration projects in selected countries with development cooperation with Denmark. The application must be submitted together with research partners in one or more of the selected countries with development cooperation with Denmark.

For questions concerning the application procedures in general and ongoing calls, please contact the Research Management Team at Danida Fellowship Centre at ffu@dfcentre.dk

An application in two phases

The application round is two-phased:

Phase 1  is the first step of a process in which applicants submit project ideas leading to prequalification

Phase 2  is the submission of a full application by those selected in Phase 1 (“prequalified”)

Applications for funding are submitted via Danida Fellowship Centre’s online application portal, SurveyMonkey Apply.
