The projects applying for funding are 2 categories :
Each team develops its research or innovation project around a theme or problem previously identified and launched in a call for projects. These themes or issues generally come from the FONRID Strategic Plan, of the CNRST or actors and users.
Generally ; after the launch of the call for projects (in local newspapers, posters, ...) candidate teams submit a project concept note (NCP) of 4 pages maximum. The NCP is pre-assessed by experts and if it is retained, the team is called upon to write the complete project (PC) and attach all the documents required for a complete file. This file is then submitted to the CST experts who evaluate it.. If the CST verdict is positive and validated by the CA, SO, the team is officially notified and proceeds to sign an agreement with FONRID to begin the implementation of its activities.
