Synthesis Actions
Synthesis Actions
Synthesis Actions are spaces for collective thinking, expanding horizons, and imagining the future of scientific research in areas such as, for example, ecology, biodiversity, or climate change. This section gathers all the actions led by CREAF to foster high-level scientific debate with experts from around the world.

The Synthesis Actions are part of CREAF’s Severo Ochoa Strategic Plan, aimed at strengthening the centre’s scientific leadership, especially among early-career researchers. These actions are designed to promote debate on relevant scientific questions in areas such as, for example, ecology, biodiversity, forests, climate change, nutrient cycles, ecosystem restoration, or plant physiology, with an international and interdisciplinary approach.
Held in Barcelona, the Synthesis Actions are selected through an internal call open to all CREAF researchers. Proposals are evaluated by a scientific committee and must involve renowned international experts. These meetings offer a valuable opportunity for the next generation of CREAF scientists to lead initiatives with global impact and help shape the scientific agenda of the future.
