Atlas: France to WestAfrica Research Mobility Funding

Days left12w leftJanuary 8, 2027

All Information

This programme supports postdoctoral and early-career researchers based in France to undertake a two-month research stay in West Africa. Projects should align with IFRA-Nigeria’s research priorities and develop links with researchers and institutions in the region. It can support research conducted in Nigeria, but the applicant must be based in France, so it is not suitable for someone applying from Nigeria without meeting that condition.
