Core funding partners

IDDRI's financial model is based centrally on the core funding and in-kind support of its founding members and long-term partners.

It comes from the 3 categories of players involved in the creation of IDDRI: (1) research players (Inrae, Cirad, Sciences Po, Labex IDGM+ intégré à l’I-Site de l’Université Clermont Auvergne), (2) public authorities (ministères de l’Enseignement supérieur et Recherche, des Affaires étrangères, de l’Environnement, de l’Économie et Finances) and (3) private companies: founding companies (EDF, Veolia, Saint-Gobain), joined by new partners (BNP Paribas, Vinci, Danone, Johnson Matthey, and Ecocert).

This funding enables IDDRI to carry out the joint project of its founding members, updated every 5 years through a strategic project and a medium-term work programme, adopted by the Board of Directors, while maintaining all its capacity for monitoring, anticipation, reactivity and independence.

Project partners

On this basis, IDDRI involves very diversified partners in the financing of its projects. The institute is thus recognised and supported by numerous French public bodies, by the European Commission, as well as by international organisations and philanthropic foundations.
