Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) PhD Scholarships 2021 / 2022 for Developing Countries

Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) PhD Scholarship Programme towards further studies in 2021 / 2022 for students from developing countries.

The IPCC Scholarship Programme provides scholarships for PhD students from developing countries for research that advances the understanding of the scientific basis of risks of climate change, its potential impacts and options for adaptation and mitigation.

The Selection Process

The following describes the process through which scholarships are awarded, once a funding round is agreed:

• The IPCC Secretariat receives and screens all applications for eligibility, and assigns them to Expert Reviewers (i.e. previous and current IPCC Coordinating Lead Authors, Lead Authors, Review Editors and Bureau Members).
• The Expert Reviewers review the applications and proposals and make their recommendations to the IPCC Scholarship Programme Science Board, which comprises the IPCC Chair and the three Vice-Chairs.
• The IPCC Science Board assesses the recommendations and draws up a shortlist of the candidates that is submitted to the funding partners.
• The funding partners make the final selection of students to receive the awards.
