The Bridges program supports scientists in times of career transition or in periods with a gap in income, allowing scientists to continue dedicating themselves to science while securing income from long term scholarships, grants, and/or employment in scientific careers.
The program also contributes to the expansion of diversity and inclusion in scientific careers, which is why the selection of candidates will take into account ethnic-racial indicators, gender, sexual orientation, maternity and socioeconomic status.
The 2023 program stimulates research in the Amazon rainforest, specifically with the aim of helping fight deforestation, preserving of the region's ecosystems and improving the quality of life for the local population.

Selected candidates received a 3-month stipend and gain access to Dimensions Sciences Advice, Coaching, Training, and Support program aiming to enhancing science communication and peer support, building English skills, and providing training, coaching, mentoring, and networking opportunities.
