Open call to sustain the development and promotion of AI for 2026

Call for projects Research
April 30, 2026 - June 1, 2026
MIAI Cluster is launching a call for projects to sustain the development and promotion of AI, open to the UGA, UCA and USMB communities at large.

This call for project is open to all members of the academic partners
in the MIAI Cluster consortium.


In the context of this call, MIAI Cluster welcomes projects aiming:
  • to explore new areas,
  • to foster new collaborations involving either internal or external partners (note that MIAI’s funding can cover mobility between partners’ sites but not participation to conferences),
  • to support the organization of workshops and seminars,
  • to support the organization of summer/autumn/winter schools or hackathons (the targeted audience can be Master/PhD students or private or public professionals).
The selection will be based on the quality of the project and the collaborations it relies on or fosters.  Proposals should be prepared using the attached template. Applications are open all year round. Assessment of the proposals will be carried out by the relevant MIAI board (scientific, education or innovation board) and by the executive committee. 
 

Detailed provisional schedule:

  • End of April 2026: Launch of the call for chairs via email through the departments, UGA mailing lists, MIAI mailing lists, and on this page.
