Funding Call:
Newton Mobility Grants

Newton Mobility Grants provide support for international researchers based in a country covered by the Newton Fund<https://britac.us16.list-manage.com/track/click?u=6086c307824133f1f1d971b9f&id=b345f3eae1&e=164385d6af> to establish and develop collaboration with UK researchers around a specific jointly defined research project.
These one-year awards are particularly suited to initiate new collaborative partnerships, between scholars who have not previously worked together, or new initiatives between scholars who have collaborated in the past.
The grants intend to strengthen the research capacity/capability of, and contribute to promoting economic development and social welfare in, the overseas country. The awards will also initiate the development of longer-term links between the overseas and UK researchers.
Awards might include a range of related activities, but mobility (in the form of visits and exchanges, etc.) should form an integral part of proposals. The main purpose of the funding is to cover travel and maintenance costs, although costs related to other eligible activities will be considered. Partnerships including a training element and involving scholars in the early stages in their career will be looked on favourably.
It is expected that the mobility grants will establish links between partners. Researchers may subsequently wish to consider applying for other Newton Fund programmes.
Eligibility requirements
Both a UK-based applicant and an overseas-based applicant are required for this scheme. Both applicants must have a PhD or equivalent research experience and hold a permanent or fixed-term contract in an eligible university or research institute, which must span the duration of the project. Collaborations should focus on a single jointly defined research project involving (or lead by) the two applicants.
The British Academy Newton Mobility Grants cover researchers working in all disciplines within the social sciences and humanities.

  *   China

For more information please see the detailed scheme notes. Note that some partner countries have specific eligibility requirements so please check the guidance carefully.
