Funded Joint Initiatives by ETH Domain
© 2022 EPFL
Out of the ten approved proposals, EPFL is involved in eight Joint Initiatives; more specifically in two initiatives as a leading house (both addressing the Strategic Area of Energy, Climate and Environmental Sustainability) and in six projects as a partnering institution (four projects focusing on Energy, Climate and Environmental Sustainability and two on Engagement and Dialogue with Society Strategic Areas).
The first call for Joint Initiatives in the Strategic Areas of Energy, Climate and Environmental Sustainability and Engagement and Dialogue with Society was open opened for full proposals in Spring 2022. At its meeting on 13 July 2022, the ETH Board approved ten Joint Initiatives for co-funding.
