Related synthesis efforts taking place at different synthesis centres have the potential to shed light on how climate change and biodiversity loss interact and how these two crises affect each other, and provide information and models to tackle the enormous challenges of our time. iDiv’s Synthesis Centre sDiv aims to facilitate and encourage joint interactions among the different teams working on different aspects of the same overarching topic. Proposals are invited that focus on any aspect (ecological, biological, social or economic) of climate-biodiversity interactions, within the prescribed focus or constraints of the individual centres.

The yDiv Graduate School is looking for highly-motivated, international candidates from the global south to apply for the DAAD-GSSP Scholarships 2025 funded by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD).
