Application Deadline: October 11, 2024

LOCATION: USA

The Global Access Fund (GAF) was established to enable communities worldwide to make their research outputs discoverable. It will provide financial support for both outreach activities and infrastructure development to enable organizations in regions and communities currently underrepresented in the global open science infrastructure landscape to benefit from DataCite infrastructure services.

ELIGIBILITY:

Representatives of non-profit stakeholders within the research ecosystem (e.g. research institutions, associations, NRENs, government bodies, service providers, etc.) based in Africa, Latin America, the Middle East, and Asia can apply. Applicants should be authorized to apply on behalf of their organization (legal entity).

Applications are open to both DataCite member and non-member organizations.

Preference will be given to applications from countries classified as lower or middle-income.

Although current awardees can apply for funding, preference might be given to applications from new organizations and projects.

Organizations can submit a maximum of one application per funding category (outreach and infrastructure), which means we will accept a maximum of two applications per organization.

BENEFIT:

The following funding levels are available for individual projects in each of the three areas:

Outreach activities: up to 10,000 EUR

Infrastructure development: up to 20,000 EUR
