SPIRIT grants aim to lower barriers to international co-operation and assist cross-border collaboration. They also enable researchers from all disciplines to conduct collaborative scientific projects with clearly defined goals. For this reason, there are no restrictions with respect to discipline and topics can be chosen freely by the researchers. 

The programme is intended for two to four research groups, out of which one applicant must engage in research work in Switzerland, and at least one applicant must do so in an eligible partner country. Further applicants in a partner country or in Switzerland may be added. However, the total of applicants may not exceed four persons. Swiss applicants must meet the eligibility requirements applicable to SNSF project funding. These requirements apply mutatis mutandis to applicants from abroad.​

Projects must contribute to promoting gender awareness and equal opportunities. This can be reflected at the level of the research content and at the level of the project team. Please read Chapter 3 of the SPIRIT Guide:

The duration of projects is limited to 2-4 years.

At least 30% of each approved grant must be allocated to Switzerland and at least 30% to the relevant partner country/countries.

 In accordance with the bottom-up principle, applicants are free to choose their own research topics. 

Researchers from all disciplines are eligible to submit an application.
