We are pleased to invite you to take part in this Request for Proposal (RFP).
ARIA is an R&D funding agency. We fund teams of scientists and engineers to pursue research at the edge of what is technologically or scientifically possible. ARIA was established by the UK Government in January 2023 with high levels of autonomy and flexibility.
From climate change to AI and bioengineering, society faces enormous challenges and opportunities that can be uniquely addressed by science and technology. ARIA was created to activate the UK's world-class R&D talent in new ways, so that we can meet these head on.
We are looking for a partner organisation who can deliver a youth-led competition as part of the Forecasting Tipping Points programme. Our discovery process has highlighted systemic barriers that could impede the long-term impact of our programme. Climate change affects everyone, so it is vital that we include people of all backgrounds and encourage the next generation of climate scientists and technologists to engage with our programme.
