The France Canada Research Fund is a major instrument of Franco-Canadian scientific cooperation, created in 2000 through an agreement between the French Embassy in Canada and a consortium of 23 Canadian universities.
This 2026 call is limited to former FCRF awardees (2001-2024) to strengthen the collaboration and target external funding. The funding is awarded in the amount of $5,000 CAD for a period of 1 year and is intended to support mobility costs for Principal Investigators. The funds will be managed by the Canadian university to which the project is attached.
Memorial's Submission Process: As there is no quota related to this funding, application submission will follow the usual RIS 3- business day process for application review and approval.
This opportunity has 2 rounds:
Round 1:
HSS deadline: Oct. 28, 2025
RIS deadline: November 11, 2025
FCRF deadline: November 14, 2025
Round 2:
HSS deadline: March 23, 2026
RIS deadline: March 31, 2026
FCRF deadline: April 3, 2026
Final submission of the approved application to assistant.science@ambafrance-ca.org will be the responsibility of the Memorial University Principal Applicant.
In addition to the external funding agency’s submission procedures, this opportunity must also be submitted for Departmental, HSS Faculty, and Research Initiatives and Services (RIS) institutional reviews and approvals via Memorial's Researcher Portal (RP). In order to facilitate the HSS Faculty’s administrative review, please ensure "Heather C. O'Brien (Grants Facilitator)" and “Matthew Milner (Grants Facilitator)” are added as "Team Members" on your RP file.
In accordance with University-wide approval protocols, all tabs of the RP file must be completed, the completed application must be uploaded to the “Attachments” tab, all supporting documentation including support for cash and in-kind commitments and/or letters of support must also be uploaded, and “Submit” must be pressed prior to the HSS internal deadline listed below. HSS cannot guarantee completion of an administrative review for application files that are incomplete and/or are submitted after the HSS deadline. For more detailed submission instructions and information, please consult the HSS Research Support Services website.
If you plan to apply to this competition or other research funding opportunities (as either PI or CI), e-mail an HSS Grants Facilitator, Heather C. O’Brien (HSSResearchAdmin@mun.ca or 864-8603) or Matthew Milner (HSSResearchGrants@mun.ca or 864-8050), to notify the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences of your intent to apply. E-mailing the intent to apply as early as possible will help to facilitate an efficient review. A Grants Facilitator can answer any questions you may have about internal or external submission procedures and may also be able to help with proposal development.
