Apply for funding from the Ragnar Sellberg Foundation

The Ragnar Sellberg Foundation offers funding for research projects conducted at Swedish universities, higher education institutions, and institutes, focusing on the field of waste and recycling.

The foundation welcomes applications for projects of varying scope, from thesis work and specialised studies to more advanced research such as licentiate or doctoral projects. We prioritise projects with secured supervision, which enhances the quality and feasibility of the research. Curious about previous grant recipients? Here’s a selection.

What the Foundation does not fund:

  • Applications from companies or individuals without a clear affiliation with an academic institution.
  • Projects lacking the potential to have a lasting or significant impact.
  • Travel grants not connected to a research project.
