Polish Returns NAWA 2023 is a programme that allows Poland researchers who worked abroad to continue their research in Polish research institutions.
The continuous call for proposals at the National Science Centre is open from the date the funding decision is issued by the Polish National Agency for Academic Exchange (NAWA) under its Polish Returns NAWA 2023 until the last proposal is submitted to the NCN that contains a research component and has been recommended for funding. Proposals submitted to the NCN are subject to a merit-based evaluation only.
Research components can only be pursued by returning scientists or project teams if they are covered by a proposal submitted to Polish Returns NAWA 2023.
The NCN Council has allocated 2 million zlotys for research component funding under Polish Returns NAWA 2023.
