CALL FOR APPLICATIONS : INTERNATIONAL CHAIRS FOR NATURE-BASED SOLUTIONS

French universities and research institutions hold a particularly strong international position in biodiversity research. France is therefore ideally placed to take a major role in the development of Nature-based Solutions (NbS). To strengthen links with international research networks, the NbS-Chairs program proposes hosting visiting researchers from abroad . These collaborations will encourage knowledge exchange and the development of innovative research projects. The objective is to better structure French research on NbS while addressing environmental, social, and economic challenges. The program promotes interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approaches through long-term stays of international visiting researchers. Visiting researchers will also contribute to teaching and educational innovation. They will be involved in Bachelor’s and Master’s programs as well as through specialized degrees and online learning tools. Finally, the program aims to strengthen international partnerships and support large-scale European and global projects.
