International Opportunities Fund

Background

In 2009/10 NERC conducted a review of its recent and current funding schemes that support international activities. One of the aims of the review was to ensure that future investments target gaps where international activities are not typically supported through NERC's 'usual' funding schemes. Based on the results and recommendations of the review, the International Opportunities Fund (IOF) was re-launched to support international collaborative activities that are not typically funded through other NERC funding schemes.
