The Flexibility Grant supports postdocs and doctoral students who have childcare responsibilities, offering funding for external childcare costs or a support person's salary to allow a reduced work quota. It aims to help researchers balance their professional and private lives during an important career stage.
Applicants must be employed as doctoral students or postdocs in an SNSF-funded research project. Postdocs need a work-time percentage of at least 80%; doctoral students can apply for childcare cost coverage regardless of work-time percentage. Ambizione, PRIMA, Postdoc.Mobility return grant, and Doc.CH grant holders may also apply. Postdoc.Mobility return grant holders and doctoral students are only eligible for childcare cost coverage, not for support person contributions.
