Created in 2010, the Joint Research Institute for Science and Society (JoRISS) is an international research structure designed to foster scientific research collaborations between the East China Normal University of Shanghai (ECNU), the Ecole Normale Supérieure de Lyon (ENS de Lyon) and the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS). JoRISS acts primarily as an incubator for new research projects over a 1 to 2 year long period and a platform for long term development of projects previously incubated within or independently of JoRISS.
In that sense, a call for research projects is opened every year and since the start of the program in 2011, about forty projects have been selected and funded under the JORISS framework.
Below you will find the link to the call for projects published this year:
