EUSA_ID coordinator, the Institute of Development Research and Development Policy of Ruhr-University Bochum (RUB), Germany and the co-coordinator, the Institute for Social Development at the University of the Western Cape (UWC), South Africa and is responsible for day to day management of
EUSA_ID.

EUSA_ID grantees which has to be based on the pre-ranking of candidates by the potential hosting institutions. Members of the selection committee are the
