Global Change Research Institute CAS – CzechGlobe is proud to be a partner in IRISCC (Integrated Research Infrastructure Services for Climate Change risks), an EU-funded project that empowers interdisciplinary climate risk research by providing sponsored access to Europe’s leading research infrastructures.
Dr. Lenka Suchá has been selected by the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change) (IPCC) to serve as an expert for the upcoming Seventh Assessment Report that will be released in 2029. Under the Working Group II (WGII) the report will assesses the impacts of climate change, from a world-wide to a regional view of humans and their diverse societies, cultures and settlements as well as ecosystems and biodiversity.
Science-policy platforms, such as IPBES and IPCC play an important role in providing the evidence base for policy decisions about sustainability. CzechGlobe is proud to have researchers that contribute to such platforms.
In the article Supporting researchers’ engagement in international science–policy bodies, published in the journal Nature Sustainability, Julia Leventon, as one of the authors, contributes reflections on her experience in the IPBES assessment on transformative change. The author team show how systemic barriers shape who can participate in what ways, and how this shapes the knowledge available to policy. The team make practical recommendations that will benefit researchers, policy-makers and society.
Horizon Europe project AQUARIUS – Aqua Research Infrastructure Services for the health and protection of our unique, oceans, seas and freshwater ecosystems will launch the second of two planned Transnational Access (TA) Funding Calls on 2 September 2025, the “AQUARIUS Funding Call – Marine and Freshwater Infrastructure Access” (TA Call2).
AnaEE-ERIC announces its inaugural call for proposals, inviting researchers from member institutions an beyond to access Europe’s most comprehensive network of experimental ecology facilities. The call runs from June 2nd through October 3rd, 2025. This first call offers researchers from some of Europe’s most distinguished research institutions unprecedented access to 60+ highly instrumented installations across all continental ecosystem types – from tropical and mountain environments to wetlands, forests, and agro-ecosystems.
