NDA Research Promotion Scheme 2025-26

Disability in Marginalised Groups and Communities

Save the Date! The 2025 to 2026 funding call for the National Disability Authority’s (NDA) Research Promotion Scheme will open on August 18, 2025.

This year, we are continuing the 2023/24 theme of - Disability in Marginalised Groups and Communities. We are open to studies examining the relationship between disability and all marginalised groups and communities but in particular with Traveller and/or Roma populations.

We anticipate awarding up to three grants and are open to individual grant applications for varying amounts between €15,000 and €40,000 with the total funding available not exceeding €80,000.

Applications that demonstrate meaningful involvement of disabled people in the research process will be particularly welcome.

Further details will be available soon on the NDA Website and the NDA’s social media pages and LinkedIn
