Deadline: 20 May 2017
Ekhagastiftelsen Foundation is seeking applications for its Grant program to promote human health by supporting the development of better food, natural medicines and healing practices, and to support research for a healthier way of life, which in itself may have a disease preventive effect.
A central idea is to focus more on preventive active care than reactive care to combat symptoms. The same applies to the agricultural and food areas where the focus should be to find methods that can prevent various problems instead of focusing on their manifestations. The focus should not be on tackling problems, but rather finding ways to prevent their occurrence.
Prioritized Research Areas
- Better and healthier food
- Nutrition and way of life
- Complementary medicine and natural medicines
Eligibility Criteria
- Ekhagastiftelsen does not have any restrictions regarding from which country an application can come.
- For applications that do not come from Europe or North America, Ekhagastiftelsen requires that applicants have cooperation with a swedish institution. The partner must be involved in the research project. Please be sure to describe the details of the cooperation.
- Ekhagastiftelsen does not have any formal requirements that applications can only come from institutions (universities, colleges, research institutions, etc.).
How to Apply
- An application to Ekhagastiftelsen must consist of three documents:
- Applications form
