Overview
Croatian research organizations can seek €60,000–€200,000 from HRZZ for the Croatian part of four-year Swiss-Croatian Weave research projects. The Croatian EPP submission is due 8 October 2026 at 12:00 CET.
Complete grant details
HRZZ is funding the Croatian component of joint Swiss-Croatian research projects under the Weave initiative. A Swiss principal investigator and Croatian partner prepare a joint scientific proposal; the Swiss lead submits the joint proposal to SNSF while the Croatian proposer simultaneously submits the Croatian research-project application through HRZZ's EPP system. All scientific fields are eligible. HRZZ states that the Croatian share may receive €60,000 to €200,000 for four years. SNSF performs the scientific evaluation and HRZZ checks Croatian administrative eligibility.
Eligibility requirements
Eligible Croatian proposing organizations are higher-education institutions, scientific institutes, and other research-oriented institutions that employ at least five PhD holders for more than one year. The proposal must be a closely connected and complementary Swiss-Croatian joint research project led on the Swiss side by a principal investigator at a Swiss organization.
Tips for this grant
Practical Job and Scholarship guidance. These tips do not replace official rules or create new eligibility requirements.
- Coordinate the joint scientific proposal with the Swiss lead applicant before submitting the Croatian EPP component.
- In the HRZZ EPP system, follow the call instructions for the WEAVE-2024 deadline option.
- Check eligibility, funding coverage, study/project level and every required document before investing time in the application.
- Prepare transcripts, references, language tests, proposal/motivation statement and proof documents early.
- Separate the scholarship deadline from any university/program admission deadline; they may be different.
- Treat “fully funded” as a source fact only when the official provider explicitly confirms the covered costs.
Verification notes
Verified on the HRZZ open-calls page. HRZZ states 8 October 2026 at 12:00 CET for the Croatian EPP submission; this is normalized to 11:00 UTC from the explicitly stated CET offset. The €60,000–€200,000 range applies to the Croatian part, not the total Swiss-Croatian project. The official call code IPCH-2026-10 is retained as the stable source reference so this call does not collide with other HRZZ calls sharing the same open-calls URL during import.
Job and Scholarship is the discovery and verification layer. Confirm eligibility, dates, salary/funding and application instructions on the original source before submitting anything.
