Hamburglobal Funding Program

We are not currently paying out Hamburglobal travel funds for countries with a travel warning issued by the Federal Foreign Office or rather that are declared an international risk area by the Robert Koch-Institut. We will resume payments only when the travel warning for the respective destination country has been rescinded. With specific requirements, travel funds for countries with a travel warning which are not listed by the RKI may be resmued. Please contact us.

If you are planning to apply for a Hamburglobal funding during the Ocotber 2020 application period, join our digital group consultation. All of your unanswered questions on the application process and application documents will be clarified.

Current application deadlines:

• 1–31 October 2020 for stays abroad that will begin between 1 January and 30 June 2021.
• 1–31 March 2021 for stays abroad that will begin between 1 July and 31 December 2021.

Submit your application exclusively online by the specified deadline. The online application portal is available from 1–31 March and from 1-31 October respectively. Applications are accepted during these periods only. Follow the guidelines for online applications.

We recommend that you observe the above-mentioned application deadlines to ensure planning security early on. For stays abroad planned at short notice, you have the following application possibilities:

• 1–31 October 2020:
  • retroactively for stays abroad that began in the current calendar year and will end between 1 November and 31 December 2020.
  • for short-term stays that will take place between 1 November and 31 December 2020.
• 1–31 March 2021:
  • retroactively for stays abroad that began no earlier than 1 January 2021 and will end no earlier than 1 April 2021.
  • for stays abroad that will begin between 1 April and 30 June 2021.

This option does not apply to applications that were rejected in the previous application round.

1–31 March for study excursions that will begin between 1 July and 31 December 2020.
1–31 October for study excursions that will begin between 1 January and 30 June 2021 and for study excursions that are in an advanced planning stage, even if the excursion is planned to take place between 1 July and 30 September 2021. In this case, a renewed application in the following March for the same study excursion is not permitted; the funds will be disbursed no earlier than two months before the excursion begins.

University instructors only may submit applications for funding for study excursions.
