SEE community fund
Sustainability Education and Engagement believes that bottom-up initiatives are crucial in building a community. Therefore, we allocate part of our annual budget to fund initiatives proposed by members of our community. SEE funds initiatives that:
- Contribute to the community goals of SEE;
- Align with the mission of the strategic theme Pathways to Sustainability;
- Actively involve other members of the SEE community;
- Are considerate of interdisciplinary exchange and conversation.
Who can apply and what to apply for?
- Employees and students of Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ can act as main applicant;
- In principle, you can apply for a maximum of €5.000 per initiative;
- Due to institutional requirements, reduction of teaching hours will not be funded. Administrative or research assistance to conduct a project can be funded.
Application procedure
- There are no fixes deadlines, you are welcome to apply throughout the year.
- Applications will be reviewed on a case-by case basis by a committee composed of three community members from contributing faculties.
- Applications can expect to receive a decision from the committee within one month, except during the months of July and August, as well as the period from mid-December to mid-January.
Applications are assessed on the basis of three criteria:
- Alignment with the aims of the SEE community;
- Potential for addressing wider interests of other SEE members;
- Potential for generating future collaborations and societal impact.
