Description complète :

Topics:

Both Europe and Southeast Asia increasingly suffer from the impact of climate change and related extreme weather events, sea-level rise and changing precipitation patterns. Adaptation to these conditions and increased local resilience are high on the agenda in both regions.

Therefore, the European Commission (EC) and the JFS funders have decided to devote the 2024 JFS Call for Proposals to the overall area of CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION AND LOCAL RESILIENCE, and to support under the umbrella of this area research proposals for the following three topics towards sustainable green and blue economies.

Topic 1 : Waste water treatment and reuse (industrial & municipal)
Topic 2 : Underwater and above-water biomass farms working with renewable energy
Topic 3 : Assessment and remediation of contaminated inorganic and organic soils

Scope of projects:

Funding will be provided for the duration of a maximum of three years (36 months). The projects may start at the earliest in October 2025. The starting time of project might be varied, depending on delays in internal JFS procedures or the readiness of the cooperation contract among the parties and funders.
Within the framework of the Joint Call, the funding can in general be applied for:
•    Personnel costs;
•    Equipment and consumables (project-related miscellaneous expenses and project-related larger equipment);
•    Mobility costs (exchange research visits between Europe and Southeast Asia, travel costs, living expenses and visa costs, are eligible for funding);
•    Other costs (costs which cannot be classified under the previous cost items but are required for the project implementation, such as costs related to: dissemination, intellectual property, demonstration, market search, management, organisational and subcontracting costs.).
The eligibility of cost items and their calculation is according to the respective National Regulations from the participating organisations. The upper funding limit usually can also be found in there. The National Regulations are available for download on the JFS website: https://www.sea-europe-jfs.eu/calls

Critères d’admission/attribution :

Eligibility of the consortia

•    Southeast Asia - Europe Joint Call Project consortia must comprise of at least 3 partners from 3 different countries fulfilling the 2+1 rule: Either 2 partners from 2 different Southeast Asian countries and 1 European partner OR 2 partners from 2 different European countries and 1 Southeast Asian partner. At least 1 partner from each region must be eligible for JFS funding.
•    The Project Coordinator (PC) must be selected from among the partners eligible for JFS funding. The third partner can be funded by a funding organisation from a country participating in the JFS OR bring his/her own funding from different Southeast Asia or European countries. The fourth partner can be funded by a funding organisation from a country participating in the JFS OR bring his/her own funding from non-Southeast Asia or non-European countries.
•    The proposals have to address the link and impact of the proposal to the overall area of “CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION AND LOCAL RESILIENCE” under one of its topics, to enhance bi-regional cooperation and develop new partnerships as well as strengthen the existing ones.
•    The JFS wants to support integrated research approaches and specifically encourages the submission of proposals by interdisciplinary consortia including expertise from humanities and social sciences.
•    Applicants are requested to read carefully the National Regulations from the funding organisation that you are requesting funding from, as well as the National Regulations from your partners, since the National Regulations may include additional requirements, e.g.: certain Technology Readiness Levels, submission proposal to the funders’ website besides to JFS’, budget allocation criteria, etc.

However, when the project involves a PhD student, the principal investigator can apply for an additional one year funding in order to complete the four years PhD programme. Since this programme is NOT co-funded by the European Commission, this final year should be included in the budget submitted to this call.
