Funding from A-Z

Independent Research Fund Denmark (DFF) will grant funding for thematic research in the following areas:
Digital technologies (AI etc.) (RESEARCH2025)
People and society (RESEARCH2025)
The thematic research specifically aims at contributing to solving important societal challenges.
Research in the two areas, which DFF will grant funding to can in a broad sense contribute to creating short or long term value in society and aims at supporting the public sector’s opportunities to effectively create a better framework for people and society, as well as developing generic knowledge and talent base within digital technologies, which are crucial in underpinning and expanding Denmark’s position as a digital pioneer country.

A DFF-Research Project 1 is characterised by being a clear and well defined research question, where the research activities are expected to be of a high, international level of quality. A DFF-Research Project 1 is typically 3 years, but it is possible to apply for a 4-year project if a PhD student is involved in the project.
