Together with an external party, a doctoral student works for four years on a pressing social issue. The projects are of high scientific quality and bring forth new knowledge.
The invitation to submit applications will open in May with a deadline of the end of September. In addition, there will also be a continuous invitation to submit applications for seed money to submit a more comprehensive full application.
