Belmont Forum – Towards the Ocean We Want: Biodiversity and Ecosystem Sustainability for Nature and Human Well-Being (CRA Ocean 2)

How to Apply: 

The Belmont Forum’s OCEAN 2 CRA supports transdisciplinary research addressing global ocean challenges and contributes to the Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development. Projects are expected to last 36 months and involve research consortia with participants from multiple countries and disciplines, including societal partners.

Proposals should focus on at least one of three key areas:
  • Biodiversity Conservation and Nature-Based Solutions
  • Ocean-Biodiversity-Climate Integration
  • Nature Futures, Ocean Governance, and Ethics for Sustainability.
 

The Belmont Forum is a partnership of funding organizations, international science councils and regional consortia committed to advancing transdisciplinary science. Guided by the Belmont Challenge, the Belmont Forum aims to support international transdisciplinary research that generates knowledge for understanding, adapting to and mitigating global environmental change. As a mechanism to support international collaboration, the Belmont Forum issues collaborative research actions (CRAs) that mobilize funding partners around shared research priorities.

The Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) is participating in the Belmont Forum Collaborative Research Action (CRA) “Towards the ocean we want: biodiversity and ecosystem sustainability for nature and human well-being” (Ocean 2), along with other Belmont Forum partners. This CRA aims at coordinating actions and projects through a transdisciplinary approach, fostering co-creation, co-design, and co-implementation of innovative solutions to address global environmental challenges related to the ocean, its biodiversity, from genes to ecosystems. The CRA will fund multinational research teams based on a two-step competition.

NSERC will provide funding through an Alliance-type grant to eligible Canadian researchers in the natural sciences and engineering to support their participation in the funded research projects. For more information about the competition and application process, visit the Belmont Forum website.
