The G8 Research Councils Initiative on Multilateral Research Funding

The second Call for Proposals: Interdisciplinary Program on Material Efficiency – A first step towards sustainable manufacturing

The G8 Research Councils Initiative on Multilateral Research Funding

The Heads of Research Councils from the G8 countries (G8-HORCs) Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Russia, the UK, and the USA (Italy is not participating) have established a new joint funding initiative.

Global challenges need global solutions and this pilot initiative provides a new framework for co-operation across a broad range of disciplines and on a multilateral and multinational basis.

Following the first call, the initiative continues with a second call on Material Efficiency.
