working on climate change solutions, France would love for you to stay
awhile.
Following President Trump's June 2 decision to withdraw from the Paris
climate agreement — a multi-country pact that acknowledges global warming
poses serious threats to humanity and the environment — the French
government has created an outlet for people from all countries who still
want to fight climate change.
The website is called Make Our Planet Great Again.
Researchers, teachers, and students can apply for a four-year grant that
allows them to continue their studies or instruction, fully financed. The
site also provides information on how to move to France by obtaining a work
visa and residency permit.
The website explains: “You will be able to stay in France at least for the
duration of the grant, and longer if you are granted a permanent position.
There is no restriction on your husband / wife working in France. If you
have children, note that French public schools are free, and the tuition
fees of universities and 'grandes écoles' are very low compared to the
American system.”
Businesspeople and heads of NGOs can also apply to receive funding from the
federal government, which issues grants to organizations it considers
deserving.
Emmanuel Macron won the French presidential election May 7. Since his
victory, a video his campaign posted in February has been making the rounds
on American social media. The Facebook video was addressed to American
climate scientists who feel alienated by the Trump administration. Looking
straight into the camera, speaking English, Macron tells American "
researchers, entrepreneurs, [and] engineers working on climate change" that
they have a home in his country. | O**l
