The DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service), Germany's biggest funding organisation for the international exchange of students and researchers, is organising a training course for young researchers.
The course aims at developing skills to write proposals for research grants.
It takes place in Cameroon and applicants are allowed from Cameroon, Gabon, Democratic Republic of Congo and Republic of Congo.
The deadline for application ends already on 15 February (there's a possiblility of this deadline being extended slightly) .
The course will be in the French Language.

ProGRANT Proposal Writing for Research Grants is part of the DIES (Dialogue on Innovative Higher Education Strategies) program of the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and the German Rectors’ Conference (HRK).

The aim of ProGRANT Proposal Writing for Research Grants is to enable researchers and younger PhD holders (up to 40 years of age) from countries in the Global South (mainly Latin America, Africa, the Middle East and Southeast Asia) to develop proposal writing skills according to international standards and to design, write and budget a promising proposal for national and international research funding.

The courses are organized and conducted by the International Office of the University of Cologne in close cooperation with ProWiss (Consulting Services for Researchers) and partner institutions in the regions.

ProGRANT is an effective tool for enhancing academic capacity building in the global south and for promoting international research cooperation.
