Our scientific collaborations

Much of the research at CEREGE is based on national and international collaborations.

In a few key figures, this represents :

  • more than 75 % publications between 2016 and 2021 have international co-authors,

  • about 140 guest scientists welcomed over the same period,

  • coordination of 7 ANR multi-laboratory projects.

Overview of our collaborations

To achieve this, CEREGE relies on numerous international research programmes to develop its collaborations: with the EU (H2020), the ANR (PCRI), the CNRS (IRP, PICS), the IRD (JEAI, LMI) and the French Development Agency (AFD).

The four CEREGE teams have developed international collaborations via projects funded by: the EU (Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions), the ANR (PCR), the INSU (EC2CO, IMAGO), the Fondation pour la recherche sur la Biodiversité, the AMU (ARKAIA Institute) and the NSF (USA).

The various projects are presented in the team pages.

CEREGE's international projects cover :

  • Agricultural soil management and rehabilitation of mining soils
  • Aquifer resources and the hydrological functioning of lakes and lagoons
  • Seismic and morpho-tectonic risk
  • Geochronology and past continental hydroclimates
  • Paleoceanography
  • Nanotechnologies and the use of nanomaterials
  • Socio-ecosystems in the face of global change

CEREGE is also developing international training:

  • Erasmus programme (2019-2022) consortium of 3 European universities, led by CEREGE for AMU
  • International doctorates 14 theses supervised since 2016, co-supervised or co-tutored with foreign universities
  • CIVIS project the creation of common teaching modules and the Joint Master CIVIS Climate-Environment-Energy

Sciences aux Sud

CEREGE is committed to long-term collaborations with developing countries, in particular through AFD and World Bank programmes, embassy cooperation and cultural action departments (SCAC) and resources made available by the IRD.

Examples of collaborations:

  • 2 linternational mixed laboratories with African partners
  • 2 jew teams attached to the IRD
  • 4 ohydro-eco-climatic observatories in the South (funded by IRD, CNRS and ANR)
  • 3 partnerships with Congo and India via ANR and IFCPAR
