The European Union and China have established a joint research fund to support collaborative research between the two regions. This fund is designed to promote research and development projects that bring together researchers and experts from Europe and China. In order to apply for the fund, applicants must submit a detailed project proposal outlining their research objectives, expected outcomes, and proposed budget. The proposal must also demonstrate the potential impact of the research project, including the potential for economic and social benefits. Applicants should also provide evidence of their qualifications and experience in the field of research, as well as a narrative describing their research plan and methodology. 

Additionally, applicants must include a project timeline, a detailed budget, and any additional supporting documents that may be required. Finally, applicants must also provide letters of support from relevant stakeholders, such as potential research partners, industry representatives, and/or funding sources. This will provide additional evidence of the project’s potential impact. The European Union and China are committed to supporting collaborative research between the two regions. By submitting an application for the EU/China research fund, applicants can take advantage of this opportunity and become part of an exciting and mutually beneficial research initiative.
