Managing Institution
The institution managing the mission will be either a supervisory body of the applicant's home organization (for outgoing mobility) or a supervisory body of the host organization (for incoming mobility); this institution must be eligible for PEPR funding, specifically:
- A French institution of higher education and/or research, or a consortium of such institutions;
- A private institution contributing to public service missions in higher education and research, under Article L.732-1 of the French Education Code, subject to eligibility analysis by the ANR, the MESR's opinion, and validation by the SGPI.
For overseas mobility, this condition must apply to the home and/or host establishment.
Funding Request
The total budget for this 2026 mobility call is €126,000. Project budgets must range from €2,500 to €9,500, for mobility durations of 1 to 4 months.
The budget should be structured in such a way as to:
- Comply with the financial regulations of the French National Research Agency (ANR) for PEPR (eligible expenses);
- Comply with the financial rules of the managing institution in setting up and carrying out the mission (“travel policy”), through the support of the relevant administrative departments within the institution for the construction and validation of the requested budget;
- Minimize the carbon footprint of the project (e.g., prioritizing train travel over air travel whenever possible).
Scope of the financial assistance :
- The grant requested will cover travel and accommodation expenses, and, depending on the policies in force at the managing institution, possibly cover other costs related to hosting (e.g. Campus France expenses) or departure on assignment (e.g. hardship allowances).
- Any operating costs incurred in carrying out the assignment (e.g., experiments, fieldwork, conference or summer school registration) will not be covered by PEPR FORESTT mobility grants. Such expenses must be financed through other means.
Payment of grant:
- If the managing institution is INRAE, the budget will be transferred to the managing unit through an internal budget transfer.
- If the managing institution is a partner in the "Steering & Governance" project of the PEPR FORESTT (Cirad, CNRS, AgroParisTech, IRD, IGN, UM, UL, ONF, CNPF), it will have to advance the mission expenses, which will be reimbursed in real terms in year N+1 as part of the modulation of credits paid to partner institutions.
- Otherwise (if the managing institution is not a partner in the "Steering & Governance" project of the PEPR FORESTT), the grant will be paid prior to the mission, upon presentation of an invoice issued by the managing institution, after receipt of the decision awarding a mobility grant and, where applicable, a favorable opinion from the FSD.
