Collaboration designed to last
Operational sustainability ensures that collaboration endures beyond initial engagement or funding cycles.
Operational sustainability depends on:
- Shared funding or cost-recovery arrangements
- Continued participant commitment
- Periodic review of relevance and performance
- Maintenance of infrastructure and governance capability
- Adaptation to changing policy and scientific contexts
SEAF operates on a shared-funding and cost-recovery model. Each instance must demonstrate sufficient funding and governance capability to remain operational.
Sustainability is built into how environments are funded, governed and reviewed.
