projects focused on the coral reefs of French Polynesia. Grants will be
available to both French nationals and foreigners. To support the
advancement of science in the Pacific, one of the four award recipients
will come from the South Pacific Islands.



The IRCP scientific committee, including several members from the Pacific
Community (SPC), will lead the selection process. *Each grant is valued at

fieldwork, the candidates will provide a preliminary report of their
findings. The successful candidates will provide a final report, including
at least one publication in a peer reviewed scientific journal of a high
standard, in the following year. The grant should be mentioned in reports
