Responsibilities?
The Board of Trustees of the FWO is responsible for the allocation of the funds which mainly come from the Flemish Government, and to a lesser extent from the Federal Government. The French Community has a fund analogous to the FWO: the "Fonds de la Recherche Scientifique F.R.S.- FNRS".
The Boards of Trustees of both institutions manage the Federal Fund for Scientific Research (FFWO). The FFWO decides on non-divisible resources and a number of well-defined responsibilities (decisions on common rooms of buildings or certain prizes, donations and legacies).
