From 2020, the funding for core facilities started on a new basis as a separate funding scheme based on the \u201cPrinciples of supporting core infrastructure\u201d developed by the Ministry of Education and Research. A&nbsp;<strong>core facility<\/strong>&nbsp;is an object of the Estonian Research Infrastructure Roadmap that provides services outside the institution or institutions that formed it and is included in the list of core facilities. The purpose of&nbsp;<strong>Core Facility grant<\/strong>&nbsp;is to ensure the openness of the research infrastructure of national importance to public, private and third sector users. The grant is provided for covering the additional costs related to making the research infrastructure available outside the core infrastructure managing institution and to cover the costs involving obligations arising from international cooperation. The&nbsp;<strong>manager of the core facility<\/strong>&nbsp;is a research and development institution or a consortium whose members include at least one positively evaluated research and development institution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading wp-el\">Funding the International collaboration between Research Infrastructures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-el wp-block-paragraph\">International research cooperation grant is research and development funding that is given to Estonian institutions for participation in cooperation initiated by international research infrastructure. The applicant is a consortium related to international infrastructure, which is formed of Estonian institutions that have submitted this infrastructure to the Estonian research infrastructure roadmap list. These institutions can also invite other parties related to the infrastructure and carrying out activities in Estonia to join the consortium.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"ama-block block-people\"><div class=\"block__header\"><div class=\"d-flex flex-wrap align-items-center\"><h2>Contact<\/h2><\/div><\/div><div class=\"block__body\"><div class=\"person-item\"><div class=\"item__thumb\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/etag.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/priitta.webp\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/div><div class=\"item__content\"><p class=\"is-title\">Priit Tamm<\/p><p>Head of the Unit of Research Infrastructure<\/p><div class=\"contact-methods \"><p><a href=\"tel:+3725016624\">+372 501 6624<\/a><\/p><p><a href=\"mailto:priit.tamm@etag.ee\">priit.tamm@etag.ee<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Estonian Research Council has had several funding strategies to provide recources for research infrastructures since 2014.
