The Scandinavian Research Council for Criminology (SRCfC/NSfK) can provide financial support for research projects, working group meetings, travels, study trips, translations, etc.

Priority is given to applications for research projects relating to the themes decided upon by the Council.

The current themes are:

• Organized crime, economic crime and corruption 2007-2008
• Restorative justice 2008-2009

The Council normally reviews applications for financial support once a year at its annual meeting, which usually takes place at the end of March.

Travel grants, however, will normally be reviewed by the chairperson of the Council on an ongoing basis. Please use the forms below.

Research Grants for 2009 will be announced October 2008 at the latest.

Research grants for 2008 - announcement

Provided that government grants are approved by the membership countries, the Scandinavian Research Council for Criminology (NSfK) would like to announce the following research grants for the year 2008:

Two Nordic projects, each to receive 50 000 EUR, for studies of restorative justice and/or other topics and questions of Nordic relevance. The projects should include at least three of the Nordic countries, with participants from at least two of these countries.

Additionally, NSfK may also grant three individual projects for researchers seeking to study topics of Nordic relevance - each to receive maximum 20 000 EUR.

The financial resources of NSfK are limited. Applicants are therefore encouraged not to submit applications exceeding the amounts stated in this announcement.

NSfK would also like to remind researchers of the possibilities of applying for financial support for working group meetings with joint Nordic perspectives.

Submission deadline was December 15th 2007.
