Funding / 12 months post doc contract in France
Mrs. and Mr. Rector, Vice-Rector, Dean and Vice-Deans, Directors of Institutes, Officers,
First, let us express our support regarding the COVID-19 situation and the impact on your institutions. We hope that you are doing well.
We wanted to share a funding opportunity for your young researchers, which is part of the initiative Make Our Planet Great Again launched by President of France Emmanuel Macron.
France’s ministries of Europe and foreign affairs (MEAE) and of higher education, research, and innovation (MESRI) in collaboration with Campus France have implemented a program of support for international postdoctoral researchers wishing to conduct further research in France on a topic related to earth systems, climate change and sustainability, the energy transition, or societal challenges of environmental issues.
Foreign researchers holding a doctoral degree (for less than 5 years) are encouraged to respond to this call for proposals. Candidates must include with their application a letter from a French host institution agreeing to host their research if the candidate’s proposal is accepted by the program. This letter has to detail the resources provided to carry out the research project. A possibility of co-financing can also be considered.
Institutions hosting the laureates will be financed to 50 000€ for a period of 12 months, per selected post-doctoral researchers.
Applications will be accepted until April 5th, for a departure between September and December 2020.
All information on the application process and eligibility to the program is available here (Campus France website).
We would be very grateful if you could share the information within the university. We are at your disposal for any question.
