Thematic initiatives
The Tromsø Research Foundation contributes to several different thematic initiatives.
Thematic initiatives can be linked to specific regional strengths or challenges, preferrably multidispilinary topics where the Foundation can make a long lasting difference.
All applications to TFS has to be achored at the appropriate UiT leadership level and will be evaluated by independent experts.
The Trond Mohn research foundation (TMF) and TFS signed June 2023 a cooperation agreement to implement a separate UiT initiative to support high-quality research projects at UiT. The Trond Mohn research foundation sets annual financial frameworks for the UiT initiative and TFS will identify and develop research projects worthy of support within this framework. The new projects can either be pure UiT projects or UiT-led collaborative projects with Bergen. More information about the cooperation here.
New tematic initiative after 2024 are financed by the TMF UiT-initiative.
