4008 Inclusive Science and Social Practices Support Program for Individuals with Special Needs, run by TÜBİTAK Science and Society Directorate, is now open for applications.

Since 2007, TÜBİTAK Science and Society Directorate have been supporting projects that aim to carry out scientific activities for different segments of society, from preschool children to undergraduate students and teachers.

In this context, our program, launched in 2022, aims to raise awareness among individuals with special needs, to facilitate their integration into society by providing support in education and independent living and to promote the dissemination of scientific applications designed for their needs.

Several significant updates and improvements have been made for the 2025 call period. Key changes include:

  • Updates have been made to the scope of the program.

  • The maximum support limit, Project Incentive Bonus amount and project team fees have been increased.

  • The practice of awarding an additional +1 point to project proposals whose participants consist solely of individuals with special needs was continued.
