BCDiv
an ambitious project in the Museum,
for studying interactions between
biodiversity and the human societies

InEE
2010: Big national program “ Investissement d’avenir”
(Investment for the future)
35 thousand million Euros, including 22 for research and universities
Calls for projects of:
- Excellence Initiatives (IdEx)
- Excellence Laboratories (LabEx)
- Excellence Facilities (EquipEx)
etc…
800 proposals, 100 accepted in 2011
Support the best laboratories and strengthen their potentialities
in order to generate ambitious scientific projects and to make
them more visible at the international level
BCDiv
Biological and Cultural Diversities:
origins, evolution, interactions, future
InEE
Located on the sites of the
National Museum of Natural History (MNHN)
© JD Vigne, CNRS
Conceived as a multi-disciplinary transversal networking project, based
on:
-  13 Laboratoriesof the MNHN (60%) and of the CNRS Institute Ecology & Environment
(20%)
- 114 researchers, 197 (Ass.)Professors, 176 technical staff
Humans &
Societies
Biodiversity
Biodiversity issues cannot be addressed without taking into
consideration the complexity and dynamics of both the human
societies and the biodiversity, and their interactions at different
time scales.
BCDiv aims to:
- Bring together and stimulate the very diverse disciplinary skills,
- Put them at the service of the improvement of knowledge and
understanding
of the biological and cultural diversities, and of their complex
interactions
Three main areas of
research, teaching, training and dissemination:
Processes -  Diversity of humans and of the behaviours of
their societies towards biodiversity, and the
processes which generate and sustain these
diversities
Patterns
-  Patterns of the biological diversity, from the
level of the organs to the level of ecosystems,
and the processes of birth and natural regulation
of this biodiversity
- Diversity and complexity of the interactions
between the biological and the socio-cultural
systems (co-evolution / co-development)

2 UMS
Strengths:
-  Pluridisciplinarity (environmental chemistry, ecology, systematics,
evoluton sciences, biological, social and historical anthropology)
-  Expertise for describing and comparing natural/cultural objects and
diversity patterns
-  Ability to consider different timescales: geological era, millennia,
centuries
-  Immense heritage collections and databases, continuously increased
by new specimens coming from the inventory missions and by
hightech analytical data
-  Unique opportunities for disseminating, teaching and training
Strategic aims :
-  Support the important progresses of the scientifc research, of the
valorisation, of teaching and training which have been performed by
the Museum and its partners, in order to strengthen its collective
efficiency and its international role
-  Develop the proper qualities of the Museum laboratories : taxonomy
and systematics, conservation science, environmental anthropology,
hisstorical approaches
-  Stimulate the convergence of the technical knowledge and the
disciplianry expertises
-  Create the conditions of a collective reflection and conceptual
construction for the interactions between biodiversity and teh societies
