We would like to let you know that SCOR Secretariat will accept proposals for new working groups from now until 12:00 p.m. UTC on 30 April 2021. The guidelines, a template, and word limits are available at http://www.scor-int.org/SCOR_WGs_Proposal_Instructions.htm, including a PowerPoint presentation explaining the proposal process. SCOR probably will be able to support two new working groups for a start in late 2021, pending availability of funds and that the proposals pass SCOR review. Each new group will be provided US$45,000 over a 3-4 year period to conduct its work.
