Requests for additional grants to allow for the extension of a successful project will be considered by ISESCO, subject to the condition that a satisfactory final report on the previous grant is approved by ISESCO program managers.
A grant may be used to purchase scientific apparatus, consumable material and specialized literature at competitive rates. The grant does not cover salaries and travel expenses.
