Two calls for applications 2020 for research collaboration projects are now open.

The calls cover research collaboration projects in:

  • Danida priority countries (Window 1). Applications are open to research-based institutions in Denmark, Ghana, or Tanzania

Danida Fellowship Centre has administered the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark’s support to research projects in Danida partner countries since 2008. We administer the two phased annual application rounds for the competitive funds. Phase 1 is the first step of a process in which applicants submit their project ideas, while Phase 2 is the submission of a full application by those prequalified in Phase 1.

Why more women in health research matters

Why does it matter who does healthcare research – and who the research is about? The answer is that it affects what questions are asked and which health problems receive attention. In a new research paper, two Danida-funded researchers, Christina Anne Vinter and Ditte Søndergaard Linde together with their colleague Lone Kjeld Petersen show how gender gaps in leadership and research priorities still influence global health.

Why do farmers resist change? Lessons from central Vietnam

Le Thi Thanh Thuy describes herself as a “city girl”, yet her heart lies with farming communities in central Vietnam. In her Danida-supported PhD research, she explores how agriculture is rapidly changing – though not all farmers are able, or willing, to keep pace with new innovations and technologies.
