Two new initiatives from Fulbright to encourage building links with the US in research (doctoral researcher onwards) and institutional level (admin and faculty members):
I am reaching out to share information about our recently launched Travel Grants programs, which I believe could greatly benefit researchers and faculty at University of Oulu.
We just launched two different short-term travel grant programs for visits to the U.S. ranging from one week to three months, specifically:
* Fulbright Finland Travel Grants for Research Collaborationhttps://www.fulbright.fi/travel-grants/fulbright-finland-travel-grants-research-collaboration * Fulbright Finland Travel Grants for Institutional Partnership Buildinghttps://www.fulbright.fi/travel-grants/fulbright-finland-travel-grants-institutional-partnership-building
These grants are designed to initiate or enhance long-term institutional partnerships and research collaborations between University of Oulu and U.S. host institutions. The application period for both programs will close on January 28, 2025. For more details, please visit: https://www.fulbright.fi/grant-programs-to-us/short-term-travel-grants-to-us
To maximize the reach of these opportunities, we kindly request your support in sharing this information within your institution, particularly on your intranet. Promoting these grants will not only benefit potential applicants but also strengthen international collaboration between Finnish and U.S. higher education institutions.
For your convenience, we have prepared social media posts that you may consider sharing on your platforms:

Additionally, promotional texts are included at the end of this email for use within your organization or department's intranet.
If you have any questions or need further information, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Thank you for your continued support in promoting these valuable opportunities!
