Current Grant Opportunity View - GO6268

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Seventh Assessment Cycle Experts Grant Opportunity (the program) will run over 5 years from 2023-24 to 2027-28. The program will provide funding to research institutions, State and Territory government departments and individuals to support experts’ participation in Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Seventh Assessment Cycle processes.

The program was announced as part of the Australian Government’s commitment to shape the global response to climate change and achieve Australia’s greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets. Australia’s International Climate Step-up aims to restore Australia's reputation and increase international engagement on climate change and energy transformation issues.

The objectives of the program are to:

• support the delivery of the work of the IPCC, including the development of its assessment reports and associated reports, in a manner that informs the development of Australia’s climate change policy and implementation of its international climate change treaty obligations
• engage Australian experts in climate science, adaptation, mitigation and greenhouse gas inventory methodologies, to share Australia’s climate change expertise and experience with the international community through participation in IPCC meetings and collaboration in the preparation of IPCC reports and associated publications.
