The French Institute finances research-driven short stays to improve collaboration between France and Estonia. The second session of the year 2020 is open until 22 June, with a particular focus on sustainable development, the fight against global warming and energy.

The High-Level Scientific Stays (SSHN) programme offers PhD students and researchers from Estonian universities a short stay in a research laboratory in France, for a period ranging from 15 days to one month. Applicants must present a solid project accompanied by a visit schedule and an invitation from the French partner.
