(24th April 2022 – 23rd June 2022)
The new KFAS 2022-2024 strategy is focused on funding research projects that
address key, national priority areas, through collaborative, interdisciplinary, and
intersectoral applied and basic research projects. These key priority areas are
Health, Education, Energy, Environment, Water, Food Security, and Digital
Transformation. The goal is to not only expand and build a growing body of
knowledge in each key area, but also to ensure the translation and adoption of
research outcomes from these research grants, as a means to foster and advance
social and economic growth nationally, as well as contribute to scientific
advancement globally.
The 2022 Second Call for Research Proposals will focus on the domains of
Health, Food Security and Education for basic and applied research proposals.
The call will also include Policy Research Grants and Young Researcher Grants
(see below). The Policy Research Grants will embody the same domains as the
applied and basic research proposals, directed towards providing a unique
approach to examining and analyzing the impact of policy issues through
research, data analysis and systematic collection and presentation of information
to provide evidence necessary to justify public decision-making and shape policy
development. The Young Researcher Grants will involve all topics related to
Science, Technology, and Innovation (STI), with priority given to proposals in the
Health, Food Security and Education domains.
Please note that proposals will be accepted through the KFAS Grant Management System
starting 24th April 2022. No manual submissions will be accepted.
