The Science and Technology Alliance for Global Sustainability (the Alliance) announced today the appointment of an Engagement Committee with 15 members who will work on involving stakeholders throughout the entire research process from co-design to dissemination.
The TPO (NERC) held a mid-term projects meeting alongside the ‘Deltas in Times of Change II’ conference in Rotterdam on September 23, 2014. The Belmont Forum projects were joined by four aligned EU projects funded under FP-7.
To facilitate collaboration between researchers and end-users seeking to apply for funding under the Arctic Observing and Research for Sustainability call, the National Science Foundation hosted two researcher-matching webinars.
On behalf of the Belmont Forum, we invite you to a researcher matching webinar with the World Ocean Council on Friday, May 16th at 10am EST.
The Belmont Forum call for proposals on biodiversity scenarios is now open. The objective is to stimulate the formation of international networks of scientists and the advancement of the inter- and trans-disciplinary methodologies of scenario-building needed to enhance usefulness of biodiversity scenarios in decision-making.
The Annual Report highlights the key activities of the past year, and presents the major accomplishments and findings of our global network of researchers in the human dimensions of global environmental change.
Through this Call, the Belmont Forum seeks to bring together integrated teams of natural scientists, social scientists, and stakeholders to develop projects that utilize existing Arctic observing systems, data sets and models to evaluate key sustainability challenges and opportunities in the Arctic region across one or more of four possible themes.
These awards provide support to transdisciplinary, multinational consortia to engage in global change research through a 14-country joint research initiative supported by the Belmont Forum and the Joint Programming Initiative on Agriculture, Food Security and Climate Change (FACCE-JPI).
The Belmont Forum/G8HORCs Panel of Experts (PoE) meetings for the Freshwater Security and Coastal Vulnerability themes were held in late March, 2013. PoE recommendations for funding have been transmitted to national funding agencies for final decisions.
The Belmont Forum is a high level group of the worlds major and emerging funders of global environmental change research and international science councils. It aims to accelerate delivery of the international environmental research most urgently needed to remove critical barriers to sustainability by aligning and mobilizing International resources.
