The Generation Challenge Programme's Capacity Building Support Grant Programme is now soliciting proposals from research programs at developing country institutions who will benefit significantly from short-term, personalized training and support. For each team selected to participate in this program, a customized plan will be developed comprised of training events in the form of formal training at academic institutions or at events organized by the GCP, mini-grants for small equipment, hands-on research opportunities in advanced research institutions, and the in-situ assistance of technical experts.

Proposals must be received by the GCP by 30 April 2007.

To view the full call for proposals and proposal information, visit the Capacity Building Support Grant Programme web page at www.generationcp.org/capcorner.php?da=0761435.
