New call launched for collaborative research on climate change adaptation in Africa and Asia
IDRC has launched a call for submissions of joint concept notes for the establishment of research consortia under the Collaborative Adaptation Research Initiative in Africa and Asia (CARIAA). CARIAA is a seven-year research program jointly funded by the UK’s Department for International Development (DFID) and IDRC. ​
CARIAA's goal is to develop robust evidence to inform how to increase the resilience of the poorest and most vulnerable populations in three climate change hot spots in Africa and Asia:
- Semi-arid regions
- Deltas of South Asia and Africa
- Glacier and snowpack dependent river basins
For information on the call, eligibility requirements, and how to apply, consult the competition page.
Deadline: 11:59 p.m. EST, April 4, 2013
