  • Rethinking development cooperation

  • South-North professors (full professor, reader, senior lecturer) as well as scientists and lecturers (junior lecturer, lecturer): allowance for accommodation expenses and subsistence of up to 2.150 Euros per month for stays of at least 23 days.
  • South-South and North-South (professors (full professor, reader, senior lecturer) as well as scientists and lecturers (junior lecturer, lecturer): allowance for accommodation expenses and subsistence of up to 700 Euros per month for stays of at least 23 days.
