CALL FOR PROPOSALS : THE FRANCE-MALAYSIA COLLABORATION PROGRAMME FOR JOINT RESEARCH 2025 (MYTIGER)

The France-Malaysia collaboration programme for joint research 2025 (MyTIGER) is a joint funding programme which aims at structuring and stimulating research cooperation between France and Malaysia.

MyTIGER is an initiative by the Embassy of France to Malaysia in order to continue supporting bilateral cooperation in research after the successful implementation of PHC-Hibiscus (2019 and 2020) and MATCH (2021), in collaboration with the Ministry of Higher Education (MoHE). MyTIGER is based on a call for projects, an independent evaluation and selection process and a co-funding mechanism between Malaysia and France. The call is open to all areas, including social sciences and humanities; through its first three editions, no less than 25 projects have been financially supported.
