The Research Federation devoted to the Development Aid (FED 4264) of the UPVD and the IRD is focused to the contribution to the development of emerging countries. It is devoted to the structuration of numerous initiatives currently operated by members of more than half of the UPVD laboratories.

The objectives are to offer to all researchers, professors and students a dynamic and flexible structure based on complementary project teams and also to the access to local facilities relevant for practical achievements.

This Federation will offer a high visibility to this activity helping for funding by public (ANR, European,..) or private (Industrial members of the UPVD Fondation,...) partners.

This Federation is clearly a research structure at the university scale contributing by nature to the whole international impact with a particular focus on the major research priorities defined recently in the National Research Strategy.
