The Early Scholars Network of the Finnish Political Science Association organizes an Afternoon Coffee Session titled
Received a Grant — What Now?
on 21 May at 14:30 on Zoom
Receiving a grant is wonderful news and worth celebrating. At the same time, it often comes with a range of practical questions that need to be sorted out: What does it mean to move from a salary to a grant? How do taxation, insurance, and unemployment benefits work? What needs to be taken care of, and when?
In this webinar, we focus on the practical aspects of working on a grant in Finland, with the aim of giving a clear overview of what grant-funded researchers need to know. We are happy to welcome Ari Jouhki, Team Leader at Mela — the institution responsible for the social insurance of grant recipients in Finland — and Miia Ijäs-Idrobo, Senior Adviser at the Union of Research Professionals (Tieteentekijät). They will guide us through the key practicalities of working on a grant, including insurance, unemployment benefits, taxation, and your rights as a grant recipient.
The webinar will be held in English and is open to all doctoral researchers and early-career scholars in political science (and beyond).
You can register here to receive the Zoom link. You can also submit any questions you may have through the registration form, and we will make sure to address them during the discussion.
Should you have any questions about the event itself, feel free to contact Lina Trygg (lina.m.trygg@helsinki.fi).
