Applications for the GreenDeal-NET Short-Term Research Fellowships 2023-2024 are now open. The short-term research fellowship specifically targets researchers working on topics related to the European Green Deal and its governance challenges. By conducting the fellowship, researchers will become part of an expanding network of researchers and academics working in the field and contribute to the exchange of knowledge and the cross-fertilisation of ideas.
