Meto Dobnikar z MIZŠ in uspešnega prijavitelja iz zadnjega razpisa, ki bo predstavil svoje izkušnje s prijavo. Posvet bo tudi priložnost za povezovanje znotraj UL med različnimi fakultetami za skupne prijave projektov. Posvet se bo začel ob 14. uri in bo predvidoma trajal do 15.30 ure. Zaradi prostorskih omejitev je potrebno udeležbo potrditi tukaj.

 

Več o razpisu:

Razpis sodi v okvir programa Obzorje 2020, pod tematsko prioriteto »Spreading excellence and widening participation«. Cilj razpisa je sofinanciranje vzpostavitve/nadgradnje centrov odličnosti v določenih državah/regijah, kjer je potencial za izboljšanje raziskovalne odličnosti (Slovenija spada v nabor teh držav) ob sodelovanju raziskovalno odlične institucije iz druge države. Prijavitelj iz upravičene države je lahko poljubna institucija, priporočljivo je, da je to nacionalna ali regionalna institucija, pristojna za raziskovalno politiko. V primeru, da je prijavitelj druga institucija, pa se v okviru razpisa pričakuje podpora nacionalnih oblasti predlogu oziroma projektu. Razpis poteka dvofazno.

Specific Challenge:

Exploiting the potential of Europe's talent pool by maximising and spreading the benefits of research and innovation. Teaming will address this challenge by supporting the creation of new centres of excellence or upgrading the existing ones in low R&I performing countries, building on partnerships between leading scientific institutions and partner institutions in low R&I performing countries, that display the willingness to engage together on this purpose.

 

Scope:

Teaming, will involve in principle, two (2) parties:

(1) The main applicant organisation (the coordinator) established in a "Widening" country (see section on specific eligibility criteria for more details) that must be either a national/regional authority or a research funding agency or a university or a research organisation. In case the coordinator organisation is not a public authority, it will need to provide a letter of intent (the Commission will provide a relevant template) to ensure the long-term nature and accountability of Teaming projects.

(2) A university or research organisation with an international reputation in research and innovation excellence.

Partner organisations will have to explain clearly their vision for the establishment of a new Centre of Excellence (or the upgrading of an existing one) that would be hosted in the "Widening" country. This will include details on the long-term science and innovation strategy of the future Centre, in particular, the detailed provisions for the good management of the project between the partners. Furthermore, proposers should include a clear analysis of how this strategy would fit broadly with the relevant Smart Specialisation Strategy of the Widening country, where relevant, or an equivalent growth strategy. In the case of an upgrade of an existing centre of excellence, additional information concerning organisation profile, activities and strategy of the centre should be provided.

Expected Impact:

The creation of new (or significant upgrades of existing) Centres of Excellence in "Widening" Countries through the Teaming partnerships is expected to:
