Grant program: Building New Blocks

The Academic Outreach Programme 'Connecting Our Future' aims to develop and implement evidence-based interventions that contribute to equal educational opportunities for students who are historically underrepresented in higher education, with a view to harnessing the talents, perspectives, and socioeconomic and cultural experiences of these students. Target group includes students with a migration background, first-gen university students, and students from low-income families. In search of ideas that can be institutionalized and scaled up within existing EUR framework, the programme encourages applications for funding for the EUR-based initiatives with the aim to realize this vision. Funding will cover salary costs and material costs. This funding call enacts on the vision of fostering and financing for ideas from within EUR to work on equal opportuities in education.Around 10 projects per year are funded.
