VIS grant opens the classroom to the world 

VIS-initiative provides funding for the set up of Virtual International Cooperation Projects. During a virtual international collaboration project, Dutch and foreign students work together remotely on an assignment in which they link local issues to the global perspective. The VIS-funds submissions are open from September 1, 2023, to September 30, 2023. For more information, please visit the website of the Dutch Ministry of Education, Culture and Science.
