Call for Spain–Baltics Research Visits 2026Building European Bridges in Research, Development and Innovation

Thanks to the support of the Ramón Areces Foundation, we are once again opening the call for research visits aimed at Spanish researchers, or researchers working at Spanish institutions, who wish to visit institutions in the Baltic countries. The visit must take place between September 2026 and April 2027. As only a limited number of visits can be funded, a selection process will be carried out. Below are the eligibility requirements and the documentation needed for the application, which must be sent to info@acebaltic.eu before 06 September 2026.

Requirements to participate:
• Affiliation: Be a Spanish researcher or a researcher working at a Spanish research institution.
• Host in the Baltic countries: Have an ACEBaltic member who will act as host during the visit. For advice on potential hosts, please contact us. The host agrees to promote the visibility of both ACEBaltic and the event.
• Outreach talk: Selected researchers must give at least one outreach talk during their visit.
• Visit dates: The proposed visit must take place between 15 September 2026 and 30 April 2027.

Documentation required for the application:
• Host name and email: Provide the contact details of the ACEBaltic member who will act as host.
• Scientific programme of the visit: A document describing the objectives and planned scientific activities of the visit (maximum 1 page).
• Travel programme: Include the proposed dates, flight details and accommodation. Funding will cover up to a maximum of EUR 1,200.
• Provisional title and abstract of the research talk: Provide a title and a brief abstract of the outreach talk to be delivered during the visit.
• Candidate’s CV: Curriculum Vitae of the applicant.

Information regarding justification of the funding:
Beneficiaries must submit the supporting documentation corresponding to each expense, including the duly completed and signed expense form, invoices or proof of payment and, where applicable, the banking information required to process the reimbursement.

Files must be clearly identified, preferably in English, and their filenames should include the type and amount of the expense. Whenever possible, each participant’s expenses should be paid and documented individually, avoiding combined payments that could make proper accounting allocation more difficult.

No daily allowances will be paid. Only expenses actually incurred and properly documented with the corresponding supporting documentation will be reimbursed.
