 This grant is available for experts from
U.S. and Egyptian scientific institutes, universities, scientific societies,
private sector research and development centers, and governmental agencies
interested in working on a joint research project. This grant is designed to
support the add-on costs of bilateral cooperation.
The maximum grant amount is $60,000 (U.S. dollars) awarded for a period
of 1-3 years.
 The main goal of the Joint Fund is to
encourage partnerships between American and Egyptian scientists, and enhance
collaboration and technology-sharing between the two scientific communities.
Application Procedure
Applications, consisting of an
appropriately detailed technical proposal, will be evaluated on the basis of
technical merit and a preliminary budget. Applications for Joint Fund grants
must be a written proposal in English. These proposals should be jointly
developed by experts representing both countries.
Ideally, the Egyptian and U.S.
participants will already be familiar with each other or enjoy a working
relationship. It is the task of these partners to develop the joint proposal.
This collaboration should be evident in the proposal or in attachments of
supporting correspondence. The project proposal should first be supported and
cleared by the home institutions of both the Egyptian and U.S. participants.
