BC Environmental and Occupational Health Research Network

This initiative is aimed at supporting excellent research on topics of global relevance which can best be tackled by a multinational approach. Funding should help researchers to cooperate in consortia consisting of at least three partners from three of the participating countries.
For the Funding Agencies, this gives an unprecedented opportunity to work together across a broad range of disciplines and practice joint funding activities, hoping for increasing compatibility in their funding instruments to allow this kind of science-driven funding without burdening researchers with too much bureaucracy. Finding optimal ways for the Funding Agencies to fund excellent research multilaterally will be of primary importance for this initiative.
