Funding for research in South Africa-Netherlands collaboration research programme (NRF-NWO) Water hyacinths: use them or lose them?

The South African National Research Foundation (NRF) and NWO have funded four projects in the South Africa-Netherlands collaboration research programme. The collaboration is characterised by an impact plan approach focusing on broad societal challenges, is interdisciplinary and involves civil society partners throughout the process. One of these projects is from ITC researcher Marloes Penning de Vries. The University of Twente is also a consortium partner for one of the other projects. All four funded projects within the third NRF-NWO call for proposals focus on exploring the interlinkages between water, energy, food, the wider socio-ecological environment and human health, with a view to improving responses to pandemics, health risks and crises.
