The grantee must prepare a final report at the end of the given grant funding period. The report is submitted in the grant system by the designated grant recipient. Instructions and the link to the grant system are the same as in the payment request. If your doctoral dissertation or research report have a permanent web address, include it in your report.
The Fund welcomes dissertations posted to the foundation’s office delivery address: Museokatu 8 A 1, 00100 Helsinki.
The report is, in principle, public information on a project supported by the The Foundation for Economic Education. It is good practice to mention the funder, for example, in the Foreword of the publication as well as in other publications related to the project.
The objectives of reporting on awarded grants are:
(1) To make sure that the grant recipient uses the grant for the purpose mentioned in his/her application. This is important for the Foundation for Economic Education’s decision making, as well as for ensuring the fair treatment of other grant applicants.
(2) To collect summaries of reports that interest the Foundation’s stakeholders to show that economic education is worth investing in.
(3) To get publications completed with our funding to the Foundation for Economic Education’s library when they are still recent but already in their finalized form.
(4) To time the grant payments according to need.
A report on the total costs of the project and on how the costs have been covered is essential. The main point, however, is to report on what has been achieved with the grant. The significance of personal learning and experiences should not be underrated when doing this, even though grants are not awarded merely for gaining experiences. If the grant recipient has been on leave of absence or on study leave and has financed this through the grant, an accurate account of this is required.
If it is not possible to deliver the final report because of unexpected changes in the schedule, or due to postponing the completion, an intermediate report on the work’s progress/continuation is required within one year from the last grant payment.
