Fund for Scientists who want to go to the Netherlands
The Dutch Organization for Scientific Research (NWO) acknowledges the concerns of the scientific world about Trump. For example, they say that scientific top talent in the United States can no longer function as desired. “Freedom of science is therefore under pressure.”
The NWO has therefore been asked by the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science to set up a program for international scientists who prefer to work in the Netherlands. “The world is changing. Tensions are increasing. We see that more and more scientists are looking for another place to be able to do their work. I want more international top scientists to come here,” says Minister Eppo Bruins.
The NWO is now seting up a fund so that scientists from the United States can be helped.
