The mission of Qatar National Research Fund (QNRF) is to advance knowledge and education by supporting original, competitively selected research. It will provide opportunities for researchers at all levels, from students to professionals, in the private, public, and academic sectors.
For its flagship program, the National Priorities Research Program (NPRP), QNRF presents a Request for Proposals (RFP).
The National Priorities Research Program is the largest grant funding activity of the QNRF and the primary means by which the QNRF will seek to address key national, regional, and global needs through research and to pursue research opportunities for which Qatar may have a comparative advantage.
