Research Grant Programme

The NEF Research Grant Programme provides financial support for scientific research projects that deepen our understanding of nature, ecosystems, and biodiversity in developing countries in the Asia-Pacific region. This programme aims to enhance the research capabilities of young researchers in the region. It is open to individual researchers and doctoral students who prepare and implement their research proposals independently.

The maximum grant amount is 1,000,000 Japanese yen per project, with a maximum duration of two years. The application deadlines for the year 2025 are 15 April 2025 and 14 October 2025. The NEF Selection Committee, consisting of five external experts, will review the applications, and results will be announced within three months after each deadline on Recently Awarded & Deliverables page.

For detailed information about this programme, please refer to the "Programme Guideline" listed in Forms & Guideline below.

We hope that young researchers will take advantage of this grant opportunity to improve their skills, expand their knowledge, and gain valuable experience through their research work.
