Development of research consortia, supported financially by at least three participating partner organizations established in three different countries, is a key criterion. We encourage global geographic diversity to increase the scalability and applicability of the project outcomes. Consortium partners that are not eligible for funding from any of the participating funding agencies can participate in the research project at their own expense. Given the complexity and scope of the challenges, research consortia must be truly inter- and transdisciplinary, thus including researchers from: a) social sciences/humanities/economy and b) natural sciences/technology as well as c) societal partners (i.e. citizens, industry, civil society organizations), using a co-design, co-development and co-implementation approach.
Proposals should also clearly demonstrate the added value linked to the international nature of the projects and to the level of collaboration between teams from different countries.
Funding agencies participating in this call are:
São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP, Brazil), French National Alliance for Environmental Research (AllEnvi, France), National Research Agency (ANR, France), National Research Council (CNR, Italy), Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST, Japan), Qatar National Research Fund (QNRF, Qatar), King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST, Saudi Arabia), Russian Foundation for Basic Research (RFBR, Russia), Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST, Taiwan) and National Science Foundation (NSF, USA). Discussions are on-going with the Thailand Science Research and Innovation (TSRI, Thailand) to join this call.
