🌏 Unlocking Opportunities for Australian Researchers: Belmont Forum Membership Renewal
Future Earth Australia has taken the helm as Australia’s representative on the esteemed Belmont Forum—an international organisation committed to funding environmental and sustainability initiatives. Dr Jemma Purandare, co-chair of Future Earth Australia, describes this strategic partnership as a long-awaited milestone. Together, both organisations will drive progress in sustainability.

What’s in it for Australian researchers?
Membership in the Belmont Forum opens doors to a dynamic global network, fostering transdisciplinary collaborations and amplifying research impact.

Established in 2009, the Forum mobilises funding for transdisciplinary projects, breaking down critical barriers to sustainability. To date, it has committed A$382 million across 177 projects, with an average of A$13 million per collaborative research call and A$1.26 million per funded project.
