IRDR Young Scientists Programme ended its 2nd call for application on June 30th. In this batch, IRDR decided not to postpone the deadline for the number of applications we received far exceeded the number of fellows we are able to accept.

After reviewing all the application materials carefully, IRDR selected 31 applicants from 18 countries and welcomed them to be IRDR young scientists. They  major in various subjects like geography, environmental sciences, disaster management, engineering, economics and so on.

IRDR will link these young scientists with IRDR Scientific Committee and International Centres of Excellence and encourage them to participate the training programmes and other events organised by IRDR network.

We hope IRDR young scientists have a good performance of the proposed research that they submitted to apply this programme.
