About Us
Future Earth brings together researchers from all over the globe working across the natural and social sciences and the humanities to foster international collaboration that generates and shares integrated knowledge supporting transformations towards more sustainable, liveable, and equitable societies.
27 thematic Global Research Networks and 20 national, local and regional networks form the core of Future Earth’s community.
Supporting Future Earth’s work is an international secretariat represented by nine global hubs in Canada, China, France, India, Japan, Taipei, South Africa, Sweden, and the US.
Established in 2015 with the creation of the Future Earth programme, the French Hub is hosted by Sorbonne University in Paris, France and receives funding from French Ministry of Research and Education, CNRS (French National Centre for Scientific Research), IRD (French National Institute for Sustainable Development), ANR (French National Research Agency), and AllEnvi (French National Alliance for Environmental Research).
The French Hub leads Future Earth’s Pathways Initiative, whose mission is to enhance researchers’ capacity to engage in transformative research and actively contribute to supporting societal actors in co-developing pathways for more sustainable futures at different scales.
