Croatian-Swiss Research Programme 2017 – 2023 (CSRP)

Switzerland is participating in the EU enlargement by supporting the efforts to reduce economic and social disparities. The supported countries include Croatia, one of the most recent EU members. One of the selected fields of cooperation with Croatia is scientific research and a specific Programme, the Croatian-Swiss Research Programme 2017 – 2023 (CSRP), has therefore been set up.

 

The CSRP responds to the Croatian scientific community’s demand for more international integration and cooperation with colleagues from Western Europe in particular. It does so by mobilising research capacities in Switzerland and Croatia, and by supporting scientific cooperation in the form of Joint Research Projects (JRPs) between Switzerland and Croatia through the provision of research grants.
