Starting from October 2025 a new field on self-evaluation of research security has been added to Converis project proposal forms. If risks have been identified, a risk management plan must be attached as an attachment to project proposal. In addition, a short description of other risks related to project must be recorded for all applications that have a budget over 100 000€, including personal grants.
