The Global Partnerships Award is the new combined name for the previous Internationalisation Fund and the Santander Internationalisation Fund.
The Global Partnerships Award seeks to provide ‘seed funding’ for joint international research, teaching or related activities at an early stage of development – e.g. exploratory research initiatives, targeted workshops, academic staff exchanges, curriculum development and the formation of collaborative networks, among others. It is essential that proposed research activities demonstrate the potential to secure third party funding that will allow the collaboration to become self-sustained (or to generate other research or teaching outcomes and/or research/learning resources). Each proposal must involve joint work between the University of Southampton and at least one partner university outside the UK.
All staff are eligible to apply for award up to £10k.
Deadline for applications is Friday 28 June at 2pm.

Please note, if you are interested in funding opportunities for collaboration with universities and research centres in the State of Sao Paulo, Brazil, we will also shortly be launching the joint Southampton-FAPESP call.
