Call for Applications for doctoral/post-doctoral stays at Paris IEA on energy/environment/HSS within the Programme "Make our planet great again". deadline April 6th
This CfA for doctoral/post-doctoral stays at Paris IEA (Institut d’études avancées ) for HSS researchers on energy/environment issues within the Programme "Make our planet great again" (deadline April 6th) could be of interest for list members. <br> <br>The IEA also hosts residencies for confirmed researchers (deadline April 3rd). The contact person is <br> <br>[cid:C3319586-50EE-494E-9C8D-17CA3B640D50] <br> <br>Simon Luck, PhD <br>Coordinateur scientifique <br> <br>Institut d’études avancées de Paris <br>17 quai d’Anjou 75004 Paris <br>+33(0)1 56 81 09 16 <br>www.paris-iea.fr <br>Simon.Luck@paris-iea.fr. <br> <br> <br> <br>Please forward this call to your networks, even if the deadlines for both are really short. <br>Best <br> <br>Claire <br>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <br>Here is some information on the programme "Make our planet great again", launched by the French President, which aims at welcoming foreign researchers working on environmental and energy issues to France: https://www.campusfrance.org/en/make-our-planet-great-again-applications-are-open <br> <br>The call for applications is open for research visits by foreign researchers from next September. The programme proposes co-financing the visits. The IEA of Paris would be interested in proposing the candidature of a foreign colleague, working in HSS (sociology, economics, political science, law, anthropology...) on themes related to energy transition or climate change. He/she could be welcomed at the IEA, with a privileged collaboration with EDF professional and researchers. <br> <br>Two initiatives in this programme could concern both the IEA and EDF researchers' colleagues: <br> <br> * Short stays for doctoral or post-doctoral students (two weeks to 5 months), which must take place between 1 August and 31 December 2018. https://www.campusfrance.org/fr/financement-de-courts-sejours-de-recherche <br> * Long post-doctoral stays (12 or 24 months). Contracts must begin no later than December 31, 2018. https://www.campusfrance.org/fr/co-financement-de-contrats-pour-des-post-doctorants <br>The application deadline is very close: Friday, April 6, in 10 days. Unfortunately, we only heard of this call today. <br> <br>You will find below the list of priority themes ( the ones linked with HSS have been highlighted). <br> <br>PS: the call for applications for the IEA (residencies in 2019-2020) is also underway, but it ends even earlier, on 3 April. But if you know foreign colleagues who may be interested... they can contact Simon Luck. <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>Earth system sciences <br> <br>Knowledge and monitoring of the physical, chemical, biological, ecological and social mechanisms that underpin global and regional environmental changes are needed. <br> <br>They include an understanding of how these mechanisms have interacted in the past and how they are likely to evolve in the future as well as scientific assessments that are relevant to diverse contexts ranging from global to local scale. <br> <br> <br> <br>Topics include : <br> <br> Enhanced observation of the Earth System and attribution of environmental and climate changes, including anthropogenic changes. <br> <br> Further understanding of processes, interaction scales, risks and thresholds. <br> <br> Improvement of modeling activities of complex Earth systems, data assimilation and predictability. <br> <br> Exploring future scenarios. <br> <br> <br> <br>Climate change and sustainability sciences <br> <br>Critical knowledge gaps exist in ways of addressing sustainable development challenges in the context of global and climate changes. This includes meeting basic needs for a growing human population in a stressed ecosystem and how societies may address global environmental and sustainability challenges. <br> <br>These transformative changes are many-sided; they are related to human health and well-being, demography, economics strategies and their associations with sustainable production and consumption, urbanization, new technologies and processes, energy and governance for global sustainability in particular but not only under climate change induced stress. <br> <br> <br> <br>Topics include : <br> <br> Meeting basic needs and overcome inequalities. <br> <br> Governing and managing sustainable development locally and globally. <br> <br> Managing growth, synergies and trade-offs. <br> <br> Exploring, understanding and evaluating transformation pathways and life cycle issues. <br> <br> Developing, implementing and promoting sustainable technologies. <br> <br> Development of recycling technologies and of green and recyclable materials. <br> <br> Understanding and evaluating global health challenges and managing health risks and equities of environmental and climate change. <br> <br> <br> <br>Energy Transition <br> <br>The transition from fossil fuels towards innovative zero carbon energy sources, associated to carbon sequestration and usage strategies, appear as the current solutions to diminish the Global Greenhouse Gas Emissions. Zero carbon energy sources have to be made available at the right time and the right place through efficient and affordable energy storage as well as smart management and distribution systems. <br> <br>Overall, the concepts associated to the flexibility of population/economic needs and consumption habits should be put in the perspective of an accelerated energy transition. <br> <br> <br> <br>Topics include : <br> <br> Emerging innovative concepts and technologies for massive energy production, storage and distribution. <br> <br> Energy efficiency. <br> <br> Economically, environmentally and socially viable production and bioproduction of bio- sourced raw materials. <br> <br> Systemic approach of the energy transition including economic, ecologic, and social challenges, and the development and analysis of prospective scenarios. <br> <br> <br> <br>Ce message et toutes les pièces jointes (ci-après le 'Message') sont établis à l'intention exclusive des destinataires et les informations qui y figurent sont strictement confidentielles.
