Announcement for grantees on the Coronavirus pandemic

Updated 21 Sept, 2021

The difficulties caused to researchers by the coronavirus pandemic are alleviated by flexibility in the implementation of grant projects.

The Foundation for Economic Education acts to assist grant recipients when, as a result of the corona pandemic, many researchers have had to cancel their research visits or participation in conferences. We instruct the grant recipients to present an alternative way to use the grant awarded if exceptional circumstances prevent the project from being implemented in the form in which the grant was awarded. For example, a conference grant can be used in whole or in part for a virtual or hybrid conference.

If your situation so requires, please contact the Fund’s office: apurahat@lsr.fi.
