r4d figure

In light of global challenges, the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) and the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) launched in 2012 the joint Swiss Programme for Research on Global Issues for Development (r4d programme). The main goal of the r4d programme is the generation of new knowledge and the application of research results that contribute to solving global problems and securing public goods in low- and middle-income countries with the framework of global sustainable development. The r4d programme consists of six modules, five with thematic priorities and one for thematically open calls.
