The South East Asia-Europe Joint Funding Scheme (SEA-EU JFS) Call for proposals 2025 is now open for applications.
Under the SEA-EU JFS 2025 Call, applications can be submitted in the thematic areas of “New Materials and Green Transfition” and “Climate Resilient, Smart Agriculture using AI and IoT”. Within this framework, selected projects will be evaluated by an international panel of experts and subsequently funded by the respective national funding agencies.
According to the international call rules, each project consortium must consist of at least three independent institutions/organisations from at least three different countries participating in the call, so that both regions are represented. Detailed information on the international call rules can be accessed via this page.
In addition to submitting project applications to the call secretariat, it is mandatory for researchers from Türkiye participating in the projects to also submit a national project application to TÜBİTAK. Project proposals submitted from Türkiye under this call will be supported through TÜBİTAK's 1071 Support Programme for Increasing Capacity to Benefit from International Research Funds and Participation in International R&D Cooperation. Failure to comply with the application rules may result in the application being returned without evaluation. Therefore, it is essential to thoroughly review the national application rules before submission.
