من نحن

The German Egyptian Mobility Program for Scientific Exchange and Excellence Development (GE-SEED) provides funding to foster bilateral scientific collaboration, strengthen institutional partnerships, and promote technology transfer between Egypt and Germany. The program supports joint research teams through dedicated mobility grants, placing a special emphasis on empowering young researchers, including Master's and PhD students. Eligible activities include collaborative research visits and scientific exchanges that advance mutual technological and academic goals. Funding is available for project durations spanning up to one year per cycle, with a total requested amount from each of the Egyptian and German sides not exceeding €15,000 annually. Financial support covers specific travel and subsistence allowances: senior and post-doctoral scientists receive a €575 travel allowance alongside daily living and accommodation rates of €140 for visits up to 15 days or €100 for visits lasting 16 to 30 days, while junior scientists (Master’s and PhD candidates) receive a €575 travel allowance coupled with a monthly stipend of €1,400 for stays of 3 to 6 months.
