Description

Supporting students conducting fieldwork for sustainability and sustainable development research projects.

MAXQDA Research Grants is a VERBI Software initiative that seeks to support researchers, research projects, and networks for research collaboration. As a part of this initiative, the #ResearchforChange Grant was created to offer financial support and methodological training to student-researchers whose fieldwork aims to study, bring awareness to, and contribute to empowerment initiatives. Aligned with one of VERBI Software’s core company values, this semester’s grant theme is sustainability and sustainable development.

Aligned with this semester’s theme, VERBI Software is very happy to announce that we will be partnering with the Global Nature Fund (GNF) for this semester’s grant!
