The Volkswagen Foundation combines support both for individual researchers as well as institutions via the funding initiative “Lichtenberg Professorships”. Outstanding (young) researchers are offered a tenure-track at a university of their choice in Germany, enabling them to carry out independent research in innovative and interdisciplinary areas for longer periods of time.
Deadline: June 1st 2016

Dear Alessandro,
On the webpage they say there is a call deadline on 1st June 2016 and 1st June 2017. So I guess they will probably have it in 2018 too even.
The list of deadlines for all Volkswagen Foundation funding is given here: https://www.volkswagenstiftung.de/en/funding/application-deadlines.html
There is a call specifically for researchers from the Humanities and Cultural Studies: https://www.volkswagenstiftung.de/en/funding/challenges-for-academia-and-society/original-isnt-it.html
Regards,
Brian
Thanks for the report. Can you tell me if Lichtenberg Professorships calls are every year?
