Deadline: Pre-proposal15 July, 2023, full proposal January 2024 (specific day to be defined) Established in 2009, the Belmont Forum is a partnership of funding organizations, international science councils, and regional consortia committed to the advancement of transdisciplinary science. This call for research proposals seeks to improve understanding among the climate, environment, and health pathways to protect and promote ecological, planetary, and human health in the face of climate challenges. Convergent research and/or transdisciplinary research projects will investigate issues that impede policy implementation; address complex climate, ecosystem, and health pathways to determine processes underlying causal links; capacity development and collaboration across relevant disciplines and institutions; and foster the use of international scientific databases with local knowledge to develop climate-related decision support tools to better inform planning, resilience, and adaptation to climate change. Research outputs should include solutions to improve healthcare preparedness, response to climate’s impacts on health, and support environmental preservation resources, adaptation strategies, or develop measures to mitigate health impacts on understudied groups. Capacity development efforts should focus on building the skills for conducting research, producing, and sharing relevant data and data platforms, and promoting collaboration across the disciplines and institutions responsible for data production, integration and use relevant to the nexus between climate, environment, and health. Global geographical, ecological, cultural, and national population diversity is encouraged to increase the scalability and applicability of the project outcomes, including working with low- and lower middle-income countries (LLMICs) where data, knowledge, services, and solutions are lacking. Consortia are strongly encouraged to foster and implement sustainable, innovative, inclusive community relationships that will develop novel, long-term equitable partnerships, and workforce development to address climate and environment-related health risks. Proposals must be eligible to receive funding from at least three participating Partner Organizations established in three different countries and should include researchers from the natural sciences (including climate), health/medical sciences, social and economic sciences or humanities, as well as societal partners (i.e. public health organizations, civil society organizations, and non-governmental organizations).

Gastdozentenprogramm | German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD)
Deadline: 17 July, 2023 Value: dependent on salary and length of stay- please see below The Foreign Guest Lecturer Program ("Förderung ausländischer Gastdozenten zu Lehrtätigkeiten an deutschen Hochschulen") serves to enhance the internationalization of the German higher education institutes and improve the international dimension of teaching. The two models of this program differentiate between an agreement with an individual guest lecturer or with a Visiting Chair which contributes guest lectures on a consecutive basis. The cooperation should result in the internationalization of courses and, in the case of a Visiting Chair, more structural measures for sustainable internationalization, which could be embedded in the development of a study program. The teaching commitment should approach but is not required to be the equivalent of a standard lecturer position at a German university. A financial contribution by the higher education institution to the salary of the guest lecturer is preconditioned. Additional financial support will be considered positively during the selection process. The remaining will be funded by DAAD. In addition, mobility support and funding towards conference participation is available. The salary for professors in Bavaria can be found in category W of the standardized tables for the public service. Find further information or apply here. |
