On 24 June 2026, the Swedish Polar Research Secretariat will open a thematic call focused on the Arctic. The call constitutes the first step in the Polar Research Process, through which one or more selected themes will help shape the Secretariat’s operational support for polar research in the coming years.

Through the Support to minor extent (SiMO) we offer limited logistic/operational support to carry out projects or parts of projects. Apply no later than two months before the fieldwork begins.

Our operational support is provided to make it easier for researchers active in Sweden to collect data and samples in the Arctic and Antarctic. The last day to apply is 1 December.
