Inter-Country Travel Grant

The Inter-Country Travel Grant supports Finnish institutions to invite U.S. Fulbright scholars, teachers, advanced PhD students and other professionals for a short (maximum one week) visit to Finland. The visit can include lecturing, consulting, workshops, evaluation or development projects and other outreach activities with wide impact. The grant funds travel expenses for the invited Fulbrighter from their current host city in Europe to the host city in Finland. Local costs such as accommodation, meals and local transport are not covered by the grant and are the responsibility of the host and Fulbrighter to agree upon.

Travel expenses from current host city in Europe to Finland for the invited Fulbrighter.

Finnish institutions may apply to invite U.S. Fulbright scholars, teachers, professionals and advanced PhD students who are on their Fulbright grant period during the inter-country visit.

Finnish host institutions submit an application via the Foundation’s application submission link at least six weeks before the planned visit; applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. If approved, the Foundation contacts the Fulbrighter’s local Fulbright commission/U.S. Embassy for support and issues an award letter.
