The COMSTECH/IFS Programme
for strengthening research capacity in developing countries of OIC
The Scientific and Technological Cooperation Committee (COMSTECH) of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), Islamabad, Pakistan, and the International Foundation for Science (IFS), Stockholm, Sweden, agreed in February 1998 to enter into a collaborative program to strengthen the capacity in developing countries which are members of OIC to conduct relevant and high quality research in sciences related to the management, use and conservation of biological resources.
The program is funded in equal parts by COMSTECH and IFS. The research grants are administered by IFS.
