Here is the full list of the funded activities this year! SNS and NordGen Forest have decided who will get the scholarships this year.
Every year SNS and NordGen Forest scholarships funds activities that contribute to common Nordic benefit by supporting education, continuing education and knowledge exchange for persons working or studying within forest seed or plant production, regeneration methods and tree breeding in the Nordic countries.
Primarily, the grant should be used to cover travelling costs in connection with education or knowledge exchange. It can also cover running expenses for bachelor or master theses, for instance for equipment, laboratory expenses or printing of reports.
The activity in question must be relevant in a Nordic setting and contribute to a common Nordic benefit within the fields mentioned above.
NordGen Forest and SNS are working to improve gender equality and social inclusion and our scholarship mirrors that.
