SYNOPSIS: The sponsor offers help with purchasing to those Grantees who live in countries where international purchasing of equipment and supplies is difficult. At the beginning of the grant period when the contract is being drawn up, the Grantee will be asked to choose between having the grant money transferred to his/her institution (and the Grantee then does the purchasing themselves) or leaving the grant money at IFS and using the purchasing services offered.
