Call for applications: Newton Institutional Links programme

The Newton Institutional Links programme is managed by the British Council, Internationalisation of Higher Education (IHE) team.

Newton Institutional Links grants are intended to provide small-scale seed funding to:

• Initiate new research and innovation collaborations between academic groups, departments and institutions in partner countries and the UK
• Develop existing collaborations at group, departmental and institutional level
• Encourage these collaborations to work with non-academic organisations and individuals to support the exchange of research and innovation expertise and the translation of research knowledge into tangible benefits
• Establish local hubs for UK-partner country activity in a particular area, enabling engagement from the wider research and innovation community.

Please note that matched funding from participating Vietnamese partner institutions is required to meet a minimum of 50% of the total collaboration budget either in terms of cash, or in terms of matched effort.
