Academic conferences

Academic conferences are one or two day events where a topic with a distinct European dimension is addressed. They pursue an interdisciplinary approach and involve at least two of the participating UvA faculties (FEB, FGw, FMG, FdR). Cooperation with external partners is encouraged, as is co-sponsorship and co-funding. A conference should aim at producing tangible outcomes, such as a proposal for a special issue of a journal or an edited book. We award conference grants up to 5.000e.
Research Support
Through its support for research on contemporary Europe, ACES aims to provide an opportunity to build and strengthen the research profile of its affiliated academic staff at the UvA. Research support up to 2,500e can be requested to achieve one of the following objectives:

To prepare an application for an ERC, NWO and other major individual grant: a Seed Grant

To advance research related to one of ACES’s Research Themes: a Thematic Research Grant

All current ACES affiliates employed at the University of Amsterdam (including PhD candidates and postdoctoral researchers) are welcome to apply.
