The Global Collaboration Grants program, offered through Northwestern University’s Roberta Buffett Institute, supports faculty work with international collaborators. It funds globally focused projects across disciplines, encompassing research, service, teaching, international development, and community engagement. The program’s purpose is to further faculty projects through collaboration with partners internationally rather than focus on a single field or type of activity.
Collaborations may connect university-based work with perspectives from other sectors. International partners can include faculty at other colleges and universities, leaders from global civil society, and individuals working in government, the private sector, or community organizations.
