Description
The Package Proposals program from the German Research Foundation (DFG) allows researchers to submit several thematically related but independently conducted research projects together as a single package. Each project is reviewed separately, but their topical proximity enables mutual reference, supporting a more cohesive evaluation. This program is designed for projects that are related in theme but do not require the close collaboration of coordinated research units.
