Currently, you have the opportunity to collaborate with CREAF through three options , among which you can choose the one that resonates with you the most:

• Science Center of Excellence Fund
  supports the mission and work of CREAF to advance the frontiers of science by acting as a bridge between academia, administrations, the private sector and society, in a safe, friendly and efficient work environment
• Citizen Science Fund
  promotes and energizes CREAF's citizen science projects, to together promote and lead open and participatory science throughout the scientific process, based on the direct cooperation of citizens as 'scientific volunteers'
• Research Fund for Forests of the Future
  includes i. Research Grants (support for Young and Senior Talent so that they can continue to advance in their leading research), and ii. Scientific Grants (promotion of responsible and sustainable applied forestry science, accompanied by an efficient work environment)

If you want to join science and accompany us in our mission as donors-collaborators of the center, you will have the opportunity to be part of our growing Community of CREAF Patrons and Friends.

Donations and grants to CREAF help us advance the Science of Excellence in Ecology, and its transfer of knowledge and innovation, through our work, so that we can continue to provide answers and solutions to together adapt ourselves and our ecosystems to the greatest challenges of Global Change and thus be able to face them together!

Thanks to your generous contributions, we can:

• supporting the talent of younger research staff as well as consolidating senior talent (scholarships and direct grants for doctoral, post-doctoral and senior research), taking care of personal development with equal opportunities
• develop new solutions for the climate emergency (new digital tools and methodologies, demonstration projects, participatory governance projects, etc.)
• continue to produce the scientific evidence needed to
  • inform public administrations-politicians-managers (reports, guides, manuals, training, etc.)
  • train people with tools and knowledge to make the best decisions in public debate (talks, participatory workshops, training, etc.)
• disseminate our science of excellence in ecology, climate change and biodiversity to society to promote a culture of knowledge and responsible environment ( training society through scientific dissemination, environmental awareness and education, cooperation and participation in scientific volunteering, scientific vocation, equal opportunities, etc.)
• act as a bridge to continue uniting the efforts of all actors in the territory to improve our environment in a comprehensive and sustainable way over time
  As a public center, we inform our collaborators, as well as the entire public who accesses our communication channels, in an open and transparent manner annually about the lines of work that have been able to be promoted, enhanced, accelerated and innovated thanks to the contributions of our growing Community of Patrons and CREAF Friends.

Ecology moves us! CREAF is a public research center that provides scientific evidence and solutions to solve the biggest and most complex challenges facing the planet and society in the 21st century with a major socio-economic-environmental impact (biodiversity loss, climate change, water scarcity, forest management, land use change, etc.). We have been providing knowledge and tools for +35 years around the world: conservation, management and adaptation of the environment and society to global change . With a global and holistic vision , we address each challenge, with a special focus on the Mediterranean (extremely vulnerable to climate change).

If you share our same values and want to join our collaborative science, accompanying us in our mission as donors-collaborators of the center, you will have the opportunity to be part of our growing Community of Patrons and CREAF Friends : let's go hand in hand with science for a rigorous and reliable knowledge society to achieve our global health together!

Now your donation costs you even less, whether you are an individual or an entity/self-employed person! We can offer you tax advantages for your donation/financial aid (tax deduction on your income tax return at the national/regional level, IS or annual expenses).

In addition, your sustained commitment and support for science is rewarded! With the legislative improvements at the regional level, and also at the state level, you have the opportunity to access greater benefits with the recurrence of your contributions by being part of our growing Community of Patrons and Friends of CREAF .
