Linkage International Funding Agreements

A Funding Agreement is an agreement between the ARC and the administering organisation. Applicants, Investigators and Partners are advised to become familiar with the Funding Agreement to which their funded project would be subject if their proposals were successful. Note:  year 2002 and 2003 Linkage International Funding Agreements were referred to as Funding Contracts.

The Funding Agreement outlines the responsibilities of all parties (the Administering Organisation, the ARC and the Chief Investigators) including: Payment of Funding, Use of Funding, Specified Personnel, Transfers, Audit and Monitoring, Reporting Requirements and Termination of the grant. If at a later date, circumstances have changed and a variation to the Funding Agreement/Contract is required, the Chief Investigators should seek advice from the Research Office or Administration Unit.

Funding Agreements should be read in conjunction with Funding Rules for the same year.  Funding Agreements pertaining to each year of the Linkage International scheme appear below.
