![Page 1: Research funding challenge to enable key research for climate services? Attract stakeholders (public, private, community) to co-design research question](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022072014/56649e7f5503460f94b82e4a/html5/thumbnails/1.jpg)
Research funding challenge to enable key research for climate services?
• Attract stakeholders (public, private, community) to co-design research question and to co-produce scientific information relevant for users
• Provide arena of dialogue at national, regional and international level between users and scientists
• Identify common time and space scales of interest• Reckon inter- and trans-disciplinary in scientific
evaluation and carrier• Need specific research funding tools or programs to
promote these issuesPatrick Monfray, 01jul13Belmont Forum co-chair

How can international coordination help? What opportunities ?
• The S&T Alliance for Global Sustainability promotes inter- and trans-disciplinary research on environment-development issues, see http://www.stalliance.org/future-earth-initiatives
• One Alliance member, the Belmont Forum (key funders from G8+BRICS+EU) supports multinational teams for knowledge sharing, comparative approaches and foresight, via CRA
• Belmont Forum CRA (Collaborative Research Action) relevant for GFCS:– 2012: Freshwater security and Coastal Vulnerability– 2013: Data and cyber-infrastructure– 2014 (tbc): Seasonal to decadal predictability of regional
climate, Arctic observing system and sustainability science

IGFA/Belmont Forum : a key funders group
• World’s major and emerging funders of global environmental change research, and international science councils
• Initiated in 2009, by NSF (US) and NERC (UK)• Acting as Council of Principals for IGFA, a larger group of
funding agencies group since 1990s• Australia/CSIRO• Austria/BMWF, IGFA repr.• Brazil/FAPESP• Canada/NSERC• China/NSFC• European Commission/DG R&I• France/CNRS&ANR, co-Chair• Germany/DFG&BMBF• India/MoES
• Japan/MEXT&JST• Norway/RCN, IGFA repr.• South Africa/NRF, co-Chair• United Kingdom/NERC• United States/NSF• International Council for Science (ICSU)• International Social Sciences Council
(ISSC)>>> IGFA/Belmont Forum members represent
only 5 to 20% of funders in their own country or region,
… but action orientedigfagcr.org/belmont-forum

Collaborative Research Actions (CRAs)
• Multilateral call for teams from 3+ countries, inter- and trans-disciplinary
• Open to any funders beyond IGFA/BF
• All common (scoping, call, selection, follow-up)
… except the money (no across nations)
