Call summary :
The Belmont Forum is pleased to announce the launch of the Africa Regional Collaborative Research Action.
In support of the African Union’s climate, environment, and sustainability goals and priority areas for Agenda 2063, the National Research Foundation, South Africa (NRF) has led the development of this Belmont Forum Collaborative Research Action (CRA) to address knowledge gaps and priorities in addressing climate change vulnerability across the continent. Three themes (or areas) of concern emerged from scoping sessions with the community:
Area 1 – Water – Energy – Food – Health Nexus
Area 2 – Pollution
Area 3 – Disaster Preparedness, Responsiveness, and Recovery
In addition to the three call Areas, green and blue economy was identified as a cross-cutting issue and education and awareness were identified as cross-cutting activities to be encouraged.
Proposals should include a strong and deliberate linkage between the societal andn environmental aspects within global environmental challenges to ensure that they meet the Belmont Challenge for international transdisciplinary research: to provide knowledge for understanding, mitigating, and/or adapting to global environmental Change.
Given the complexity and scope of these challenges, research consortia must be truly transdisciplinary, thus including researchers from: a) social sciences/humanities/economics and b) natural sciences/physical sciences/engineering/technology, as well as c) societal partners (i.e. citizens, industry, civil society organizations), using a participatory, co-designed and co-implementation approach. Additional knowledge holders are welcome to be part of the proposing consortium once this minimum criterion is met.
Successful proposals must address and deliver on at least one of the three themes identified above, with cross-cutting linkages across multiple Areas and the integration of blue and green economies, education, and awareness encouraged.
