NWO programme: Mozaïek

Ethnic minorities are currently under-represented in Dutch academic research. The Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO) and the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science are keen to promote diversity and are concerned about the present loss of talent to the academic world. The Mozaïek (Mosaic) programme, started in 2004, aims at helping representatives of ethnic minorities into the world of science.

The deadline for submitting brief research proposals is 8 January 2009. For more information, see http://www.nwo.nl/subsidiewijzer.nsf/pages/NWOP_5RNBJK_Eng?Opendocument
