Joint Research Projects combine the complementary expertise of the project partners; the project parts are closely integrated so that one part could not be carried out without the other and there is substantial scientific input from both sides.
The size of one RSF grant is from 4 to 7 million rubles per project per year, these collaborative research projects are planned for the implementation during 2026-2028 (Vietnam) and 2025-2027 (India).
