This call invites researchers to submit proposals for exploratory, interdisciplinary research projects
that advance the conceptualization of resilience in relation to selected crises—primarily with regard to their societal dimensions.
The project must be led by a social scientist. Projects should initiate structured collaboration with other scientific disciplines
and with relevant practitioner communities, and employ methodological approaches capable of anticipating potential future
crises.
A total of €2 million is available for this call. The funding volume per project ranges
from €50,000 to €100,000.
This call is part of a two-phase funding activity. Projects funded in phase one will
be invited to submit a further project proposal for larger projects once the exploratory projects are concluded (see outlook
at the end of this document). The call for phase two is expected in early 2028 once all projects of phase one have finished.
