The European Commission wants research that closes knowledge gaps in weather and climate modelling for Africa, improving predictive skill on rainfall and extreme weather at regional, interregional or continental scale. Proposals should use observational data, AI/ML techniques and high-performance computing, and must be co-created between African and European research teams so African researchers gain lasting access to tools, data and expertise.
