NASAC-IAP Capacity Building Grant Scheme
The Capacity Building Grants Scheme is aimed at empowering Science Academies and their members through the provision of grants of up to a maximum of US$10,000 per academy.
This scheme supports the setting up of secretariat facilities for academies that have been in existence for less than five (5) years while strengthening the operations of older academies.
The purpose of these grants is to improve the functionality of NASAC members and support intra-networking through the provision of science-policy advice. Additionally, in the implementation of these grants, the inclusion and participation of national young academies, women, and early-career researchers is highly encouraged
