Open Calls

SSPH+ regularly launches calls for tasks and activities for which a national coordi­nation is necessary or where the critical mass at a single insti­tution is lacking. SSPH+ does not support or co-support activities supported by local universities, SNSF or other usual funders, but steps in for cross-institutional activities not supported by the latter.

  • Call for Academic Activities to foster inter-university initiatives and collaborations
