​​Call for Expressions of Interest: Co-creating transformative, system-level solutions for a resilient Asia

The Asia Science Mission, in collaboration with the International Science Council Regional Focal Point for Asia and the Pacific, invites EOIs to establish demonstration sites under the Asia Science Mission for Sustainability, part of the ISC’s global initiative on Science Missions for Sustainability.

The Asia Science Mission is seeking place-based initiatives across Asia ready to co-design and co-implement integrated, science-based solutions to address:

  • Climate change
  • Biodiversity loss
  • Water insecurity
  • Ecosystem degradation

Selected demonstration sites will showcase how transdisciplinary collaboration, systems thinking and stakeholder engagement can accelerate sustainability transformations.

This is a unique opportunity to:

  • Accelerate your project’s impact through deep engagement with the international science community
  • Receive support (including funding) for co-design and implementation
  • Gain regional and global visibility
  • Access scientific mentorship and capacity building
  • Join a collaborative network of demonstration sites across Asia

Details of submission:

  • Deadline: 16 August 2025 (23:59 GMT)
  • Submit EOIs: https://bit.ly/40pts7I

Coordinated by Future Earth Asia in collaboration with the Research Institute for Humanity and Nature, the Asia-Pacific Network for Global Change Research, and the Australian National University, ASM works to bridge science, society, and policy. Through regional demonstration projects and integrated systems research, the Mission is building a new model for generating and applying sustainability knowledge tailored to Asia’s complex and diverse socio-ecological realities. The ASM is supported by the ISC Regional Focal Point for Asia and the Pacific, which is funded by the Australian Department of Industry, Science and Resources.
