New - improved DFF Budget Form
Many applicants experienced unfortunately, in the autumn of 2012, that the mandatory DFF-Budget Form was hardly readable once converted to a pdf format. Therefore The Danish Council for Independent Research has prepared a revised Budget Form and guidelines for filling it. This new form should be used when applying for support at Danish Council for Independent Research.
- DFF-Budget Form (the new Budget Form)
- Please find the guidelines for filling the Budget Form (pdf file)
IMPORTANT: Please read the new guidelines for filling the Budget Form and disregard the annex C in the present call for Proposals.
