Funding Agencies
The Netherlands has three major funding agencies which are listed here:
- Ministry of Education, Culture and Science (OCW)
- The Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO): NWO facilitates excellent, curiosity-driven disciplinary, interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research.
- A part of NWO is The Netherlands Organisation for Health Research and Development (ZonMW): ZonMw funds health research in the Netherlands and promotes the actual use of the knowledge this research produces.
Other funding organisations are the socalled 'collecting box' funds, like the Dutch Cancer Society, Dutch Diabetes Research Foundation and Alzheimer Netherlands.
The scholarly portal NARCIS gives an overview of a part of the funded research projects.
