CNPq call for science events accepts proposals until December 4
Prepared with AI assistance; sources and original commentary are identified.
Brazil's CNPq accepts proposals for large science, technology and innovation events until December 4, 2026. This call concerns event proposals, not individual conference registration. [1]
Which events
The agency describes world, international and national events in Brazil, including meetings and congresses. They must take place from July 1, 2027 to June 30, 2028. The stated aims include education and science outreach; an invitation does not mean an event has already been selected or its results achieved. [1]
Three categories
The announcement lists global events, traditional national or international events, and non-traditional national or international events. The distinction involves an event's history and organizing body. The stated ceilings are R$ 200,000 for each of the first two and R$ 150,000 for the third. These are maximums, not guaranteed awards. Check the full call for requirements and funding conditions. [1]
How to follow the call
Proposals are submitted via the Carlos Chagas integrated platform. The call page lists applications from October 14 to December 4, 2026 and links to the call and FAQ. Check the event date, appropriate category and any updates, retain a receipt and follow the results. This report does not establish the eligibility of a particular institution, project or expense.

Editorial commentary
Our editorial view is that different categories can make unlike events comparable, but organizers should check the rules on history and promoters before choosing a line. This practical advice does not replace CNPq's eligibility assessment. [1]
Keep proposal, possible approval and event delivery distinct. Only documentation establishes each stage. The aim of science outreach is not proof of impact for events that have not occurred. We conducted no interviews or tests and do not attribute measured outcomes to the call. [1]
