Funding – 2013

Facing Societal, Climate & Environmental Changes (SOCENV)

Sciences and societies must jointly confront a double challenge: facing the multiplicity of large scale climate and environmental changes, while preserving the socio-economic and ethical issues highlighted by the Agenda 21 on sustainable development (Earth Summit, Rio, 1992).

 

 

Facing both societal, climate and environmental changes at large scale call for new ways to do science, beyond the needed strengthening of environmental science. SOCENV programme aims to strengthen disciplines as well as promote interdisciplinary and user engagement. The program is open to consortiums of several public research laboratories, but also to consortiums involving users, such as decision-makers from public, private or community sectors. Thematic lines for 2013 are:

  • Theme 1: Regional climate variability and predictability from months to decades, targeting geosciences, including physics and biogeochemistry;
  • Theme 2: Soil and water changes at regional scales, targeting geosciences and life sciences;
  • Theme 3: Social knowledge bottlenecks, targeting humanities and social sciences;
  • Theme 4: Integrated research studies for more effective solutions, targeting interdisciplinary and user engagement.

Applicants are invited to present projects justifying ANR funding typically from 150-250 k€ for short exploratory projects, up to 500-1000 k€ for long integrated projects.

An agreement has been signed by the ANR with the Brazilian foundations in the States of Sao Paulo (FAPESP) and Pernambuco (FACEPE) to co-finance French-Brazilian projects.

Others collaborations are possible, in particular with global South and ultramarine areas. Within the context of the European Research Area, Climate-KIC projects are also welcomed.
