Update • Strategic Research & Innovation Agenda, 2016‐2025 2016‐ 2025, adopted in Vienna, May 2016 http://www.jpi‐ climate.eu/jpi‐strategy/SRIA • Implementation plan: on-going revision for 2017-2021 • New Governance structure
Update : SRIA: 3 challenges + Strategic Mechanism Challenge 1: Understanding the processes and consequences of climate change Challenge 2: Improving knowledge on climate-related decision-making processes and measures Challenge 3: Researching sustainable societal transformation in the context of climate change Strategic Mechanism: Connecting people, problems and solutions in a systemic approach
Update - JPI Climate Governance structure (adopted in May 2016) GOVERNING BOARD (GB) CENTRAL SECRETARIAT (CS) ExCom 1 Chair & 4 Members Transdisciplinar y Advisory Co-leaders of Action Groups Board (TAB) SRIA SCOPING FORUM Informal Group of AG Speakers ACTION GROUPS (AG)
Accomplishments 1: Joint calls – 2013 Transnational Collaborative Research Projects, approx. 10MEuro: all projects running • Societal Transformation in the Face of Climate Change • Russian Arctic & Boreal Systems – 2015 Call for Climate Services : Collaborative Research action on Climate Predictability and Inter-regional Linkages (with Belmont Forum) approx. 15MEuro: all projects running • Drivers and mechanisms linking Poles & Monsoons for societal usefulness of climate services – 2016 ERA-NET COFUND “European Research Area for Climate Services” (ERA4CS) • Joint transnational co-funded call, with 16 countries and up to 75MEuro: – a “cash” topic, supported by 12 RFOs, on co-development for user needs and action-oriented projects – an “in-kind” topic, supported by 28 RPOs, on institutional integration of the research components of national CS
Action Plans - 1 • Follow up Workshop 6 June / GPC long term strategy (contribution to WP 2018-2019 and later also 2020 : joint actions with other JPI’s or ERA nets. • Development of a new JPI Climate Liaison Strategy: focus on widening participation stakeholder engagement (Open Science vision for Europe) • H2020 call WP 2017 – ERA-NET COFUND on Climate Services Roadmap: Cross-sector impact assessments (evaluation, comparison and integration) – possibly in cooperation with Belmont Forum (lead GE) – CSA on Widening international cooperation activities on climate adaptation and mitigation (lead BE) • H2020 WP 2018 – 2019 (2020) – both improved cooperation and better alignment with EC and H2020 : using co-funding instruments for joint programming (e.g. ERA-Net, CSA, etc.) and specific EC instruments (e.g. RIA, IA, PPP, etc.) on complementary themes that cannot be supported MS/AC.
Action Plans 2 • A Multilateral Joint Call for Proposals on Transformations to Sustainability (T2S) T2S is a new funding programme for international, transdisciplinary projects addressing transformations to sustainability initiated by the Belmont Forum and NORFACE network. JPI Climate is involved in this call. Call for Outline Proposals is expected to be released in December 2016. . • Update climate knowledge hub ( CS providers and users) www.climate- knowledge-hub.org:Join the ERA4CS network of climate services providers
Action Plans: topics and activities for 2018-20 (to be discussed and/or approved at 12th GB meeting • Climate Science – Next generation of climate science in Europe, Action Group (led by France & UK) - Concerning the ocean component of climate, a potential cooperation with JPI Oceans is under investigation. • Science support to meet SDGs & UN agreements – Climate policy impacts on social transformation pathways (incl. very low emission scenarios), involving in particular Humanities and Social Sciences. • Greenhouse Gas emissions verification (alignment of national programmes and infrastructures) • Synergies and trade-off between policies on climate including negative GHG emissions (SDG13) and on others SDG environmental policies (e.g. on biodiversity and ecosystem services). A potential cooperation with BiodivERsA is foreseen. • Disaster risk reduction on key sectors. Climate knowledge synergies are possible with initiatives dealing with climate extremes on a given sector, as JPI Water, JPI Urban Europe, JPI FACCE. • Integrated regional focus on vulnerable areas in Europe and beyond • Quality assessment of climate adaptation policies on vulnerable regions, incl. outside Europe. Potential cooperation could be investigated on case by case with appropriate regional initiative, e.g. Arctic Science Summit, Art.185 BONUS & PRIMA, EU-Africa STI cooperation, EU-CELAC cooperation, etc. • In 2017, a suite of Scoping Workshop to contribute to the JPI Climate Scoping Forum will be supported by the additional activities of the ERANET for Climate Services (ERA4CS), in close cooperation with CSA ClimatEurope, Copernicus Climate Change Services, Climate KIC , the European Roadmap for Climate Services and the Belmont Forum
Outreach • JPI Climate Guidelines on Open Knowledge – to serve the network of research funders and policy makers involved in the JPI community. – extended version (available at www.jpi-climate.eu) for the scientific community and to non-academic stakeholders (e.g. practitioners, NGOs, civil society) • CIS-climate (+ funding agencies ) is used to inform BE stakeholders on the most important JPI activities (e.g. launch of an ERAnet, joint calls, …) • Researchers often ask us : what is in it for us?
Internationalisation • E.C ‘s strategic approach for international cooperation in research and innovation • Moedas ‘ policy: 3 Os including OPEN TO THE WORLD • COP 21 Paris agreement • 2030 sustainable development goals : R&I + Climate action • Dealing with global challenges requiring int. cooperation • Request for cooperation between JPI’s • On-going actions - Follow up Workshop 6 June / GPC long term strategy and contribution to the SC5 WP 2018-2019 ? • Cooperation in H2020 (Africa in particular, also India, Brazil,…) • SFIC: roadmaps
Internationalisation • JPI Action Group on internationalisation prepares CSA (Widening international cooperation activities on climate adaptation and mitigation) (deadline 7 March 2017) aiming at: – A framework and permanent strategic and structured dialogue in view of opening the JPI to international cooperation – Supporting the implementation of the 2030 SDG and the COP21 Paris agreement – Setting up flagship activities in targeted regions (E;G Africa, S. America…) with other JPIs, international research programmes and funding and investment institutions , including Belmont Forum – Developing a knowledge base for strengthening resilience, and adaptive and mitigation capacity in particular in vulnerable regions (LICS and LMICS), including operationalisation and evaluation of the Green Climate fund.
CSA: partners and some figures • 4 years starting mid/end 2017 • EUR 2 million in the Work Programme - however other amounts can be proposed • Proposal deadline: March 2017 • Workshop 5/6 October 2016 to prepare proposal for JPI Climate Governing Board (end Nov.)
CSA: preliminary overall structure WP1: Coordination and Management – Lead BE WP 5 Outreach, Communication & dissemination WP4: WP3: Strategic WP2: Providing more international Widening the coherent focused actions EU-Platform & integrated Int. dialogue knowledge and Flagship decision Actions support Other Actions
Impact • Influence H2020 WPs • Alignment of research agendas • Internationalisation beyond the EU ( Belmontforum)
Long term sustainability of the JPI • Both multiyear partnerships with Member States and European Commission are required, either sustained by annual fees (actually 20k€ per country), in-kind support from organizations and EC simplified support, to initiate, follow-up and valorise activities required to implement the SRIA 2016-2025. • At present the MOU is being renewed. (DK will not contribute any more)
