ICT25 / Submission Process

About the Submission Process 

• As projects undergo assessment by international reviewers, all proposals must be written in English.
• The length of the proposal is determined by character counts and page limits in case of uploads in the Funding Portal.
• Character counts include spaces.
• Please write precisely and address the required criteria, while also providing sufficient detail to allow an evaluation by international peers.
• The proposal will be reviewed by 3-4 external international reviewers very specific to the topic of your proposal. Please keep in mind that you are writing the proposal for both the expert reviewers and a comprehensive interdisciplinary jury

Submission of full proposals -> External written reviews -> Applicant response -> Jury meeting to select projects for funding -> Funding Decision via WWTF Board of Directors (early October 2025).
