Australia-China Science and Research Fund: Joint Research Centres

The Australia-China Science and Research Fund (ACSRF) Joint Research Centres (ACSRF – JRCs) are virtual centres that link Australian and Chinese institutions and fund research in priority areas agreed between both governments.

The ACSRF – JRCs:

  • build research capacity
  • maximise the application and commercialisation of research outcomes
  • boost collaboration between researchers and industry
  • facilitate joint efforts and outcomes that exceed what an individual research project can expect.

Competitive grant rounds are held regularly. You may only apply while a round is open.

Program guidelines apply to Australian applicants only. Chinese applicants should follow the Chinese Government guidelines.
