National Council for Scientific Research in Lebanon (CNRS-L)

In its efforts to promote research in Lebanon, the CNRS-L has established programs designed to offer grants for both individual and multidisciplinary projects. Beirut Arab University signed a collaboration agreement with the CNRS to provide funding opportunities for BAU researchers where funded projects will receive equal funding from CNRS and BAU over two-year funding timelines. As BAU aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure), this collaboration underscores its commitment to fostering innovation and sustainable development.

Details regarding application for this grant program are available online and can be accessed via the following link: https://grp.cnrs.edu.lb
