Invitation to a virtual information session on Monday, February 23, 2026, at 2:00 PM (CET) Weave – Research funding without borders

Published on 09 January 2026

Organized jointly by the Scientific Research Fund-FNRS (F.R.S.-FNRS) and the Research Foundation Flanders (FWO).

The European Weave initiative (https://weave-research.net/) was launched in December 2020 by European funders to support excellent cross-border collaborative research projects. By subjecting proposals to a single evaluation process, Weave aims to simplify the submission and selection procedures for collaborative research proposals involving researchers from up to three European countries or regions.

The information session aims to answer the following questions:

What is Weave, how does it work in practice? How can Weave facilitate scientific collaboration between researchers in the

Wallonia-Brussels Federation and Flanders? What other bilateral and trilateral collaborations are possible within the framework of Weave? What are the conditions, procedures and deadlines to be respected?

We invite you to virtual information session which will take place on February 23, 2026 from 2:00 p.m. (CET), during which the FWO and the F.R.S.-FNRS will present the  collaboration opportunities within the Weave initiative  and will answer your questions during a question-and-answer session.
