Research Collaboration Program between The University of Sao Paulo (USP) and The Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS)

Submission date : November 3rd, 2025.

The CNRS and the USP are launching a joint call for proposals between the two institutions in order to further develop collaborations.

This call for proposals supports collaborative research between the French academic community and the USP. This year, the call will focus on megacities facing accelerated climate change.

In order to guide the scientific communities towards the themes that are of particular interest for this joint call, applicants are encouraged to consider proposals addressing the challenges of megacities facing accelerated climate change. Within this perspective, the CNRS–USP “Megacities” PhD cluster identifies several research directions of high priority: the mapping and mitigation of urban heat islands and thermal stress; the adaptation of infrastructures and water systems to increasing extreme events; the examination of climate justice and socioenvironmental inequalities in vulnerable urban areas; the development of urban agriculture and short supply chains to enhance food resilience; the analysis of biodiversity loss and ecological fragmentation within metropolitan environments; the exploration of low-carbon design, construction materials and sustainable urban planning; as well as the integration of citizengenerated data and digital tools into climate-related urban governance. These themes are not exhaustive, but they illustrate the type of interdisciplinary approaches and innovative doctoral projects expected in this call, combining environmental sciences, social sciences, agriculture and decarbonization, climate studies, and computational methodologies.

The joint call is intended to fund up to 3 years of a PhD fellowship and travel starting in September 2026 for all awardees. […]
