International cooperation
International action
Developing European and international collaboration is one of the ANR’s priorities.
By accelerating and deepening the collaborations initiated by French scientists and research organisations where high-level communities exist, ANR's international policy aims at supporting French research teams to optimise their position in the worldwide competition. Through its policy of European cooperation, the ANR contributes actively to the construction of the European Research Area. Furthermore, the agency intends to develop strategic partnerships with emerging countries in the global scene.
Based on cooperation agreements signed with foreign partner funding organisations, the ANR develops binational or multilateral partnerships on topic of common interest and deemed strategic by the partners.
