Concretely, Sonar-Global proposes to develop assessments and protocols for researchers & public health authorities to advance their own projects. Users should plan to implement these studies independently as the ISIDORe budget is limited and cannot support full projects. However, in special circumstances, Sonar-Global can implement small pilots in rare cases.

Sonar-Global also offers Facility Access to our partner institutions. This means you can request to spend time with our Access Providers in their centers for training and project development assistance. This tool is intended for increased international collaboration and capacity building.

If you do not see the Social Science Service you need above, please contact Sonar-Global_Services@pasteur.fr with a brief description of your planned activities and we will help you find what you need.

Once you have selected a service, complete the Pre-Application on the ISIDORe websiteNote that the pre-application requires an ORCiD record. If you do not yet have an ORCiD record, this is very easy to generate at the ORCiD website. The pre-application also requires information about the goal of your project.

If you are interested in a Service provided in the country in which you work, you will need to form a User Group. Find out more about how to form a User Group here.
