1 ERANET ERA4CS EUROPEAN RESEARCH AREA FOR CLIMATE SERVICES

2 WHAT IS JPI CLIMATE? JPI = Joint Programming Initiative Est as collaboration between 14 members - to coordinate climate research and fund new transnational research initiatives. The overall aim of the Joint Programming process is to pool national research efforts in order to make better use of Europe's public R&D resources and to tackle common European challenges more effectively in key areas. It is a structured process on a voluntary basis and in a partnership approach to address major societal challenges.

3 JOINT PROGRAMMING INITIATIVES More Years, Better Lives - The Potential and Challenges of Demographic Change Cultural Heritage and Global Change: A New Challenge for Europe Alzheimer and other Neurodegenerative Diseases (JPND) A Healthy Diet for a Healthy Life Antimicrobial Resistance- The Microbial Challenge Water Challenges for a Changing World Healthy and Productive Seas and Oceans Agriculture, Food Security and Climate Change (FACCE) Urban Europe - Global Urban Challenges, Joint European Solutions Connecting Climate Knowledge for Europe (Climate)

4 JPI CLIMATE: o o o o o o aims to respond to the knowledge needs of policy and the European society at large to address climate change provides a platform to align national research priorities according to a jointly agreed Strategic Research Agenda (SRA) facilitates the coordination, collaboration and exploitation of synergies in climate change research connects different disciplinary approaches in natural and social sciences connects top researchers and research groups from different European countries connects scientific insights with the demands of policy makers, decision makers and other stakeholders

5 JPI CLIMATE GOVERNANCE Governing board Transdisciplinary advisory board Management Committee Central secretariat Working groups Working groups Working groups

6 JPI CLIMATE PRINCIPLES Sustainability: Taking into account the challenges of climate change in the activities Stakeholder orientation: Integrating knowledge, values and objectives of stakeholders Adaptability: Responding to novel scientific insights and research requirements Transparency: Fostering information and experience sharing Cost efficiency: Limiting superfluous duplication of scientific/technical and funding activities NEW: Guidelines on Open Knowledge

7 JPI STRATEGIC RESEARCH AGENDA

8 JPI DEFINITION OF CLIMATE SERVICES 'User-driven development and provision of knowledge for understanding the climate, climate change and its impacts, as well as guidance in its use to researchers and decision makers in policy and business'

16 JOINT CALL 2016 CASH Focus: Co-development for user needs & action-oriented projects Large mobilization linking academics (incl. HSS) to field actors Instruments: Small (0.5M) to medium (5M) size projects Demonstrate EU added value IN-KIND: Institutional integration of research component of national CS Develop common tools & methodologies Propagate climate scenarios variability & uncertainties Provide local information on impacts for specific sectors Demonstrate EU added value

17 Call content (provisional) in relation to EU Roadmap Topic/subtopic Research to enable CS market growth Assessing the nature of CS market Promoting CS Demonstrating the added value Research to build the CS market framework Communities and infrastructures to support and grow the CS market Standards, quality assurance and control, access and legal aspects International cooperation Research to enhance the quality and relevance of CS Information frameworks in support of CS Strengthening the scientific basis and relevance of CS by co-development with users Strengthening the scientific basis and relevance of CS by institutional integration In kind Cash
