Newton Fund Institutional Links grants provide small scale seed funding for collaborations between the UK and the participating Newton Fund countries to:

  • Establish new research and innovation links, or significantly develop existing links, between research groups, departments or institutions with the potential for longer term sustainability. A key aim of the collaboration will be to support research and innovation capacity building in the partner institution. Applicants are encouraged to use this as an opportunity also to engage with the commercial and not-for-profit sectors.
  • Focus on topics or themes which have relevance to the economic development and welfare of the partner country. Proposals should follow the country specific guidance and demonstrate ODA eligibility to be considered for funding.

Grants typically range from £50,000 to £300,000 for up to two years, dependent on the country. Each proposal must have one Principal Applicant from the UK and one Principal Applicant from the partner country.
