Summary
Building on the available results of past and on-going Researchers at Risk initiatives which have strengthened support structures across the EU and provided some form of guidance for researchers at risk, further support is envisaged for scaling up and moving towards more customised support for researchers at risk based on the needs already identified in the national and EU initiatives implemented so far.
This action should aim at delivering the best possible solutions to the challenges faced by researchers.
Detailed Call Description
The support action should be aligned with the general objectives of the MSCA, in particular scientific excellence, skills and career development, inter-sectoral mobility, equal opportunities and inclusiveness, attractive working conditions, work/life balance, while fostering open science, innovation and entrepreneurship. This action will place a specific focus on training and networking activities for researchers, in line with the MSCA priorities and as a step further in providing sustainable and needs-based professional development support for researchers at risk across Europe.
It should not duplicate other actions foreseen under Horizon Europe or other EU-funded programmes such as Erasmus+, but rather build synergies between these programmes. The activities carried out under this support action should complement actions in EU Member States and third countries associated to Horizon Europe.
- The granting authority can fund a maximum of one project.
- The evaluation committee will be composed partially or fully by representatives of EU institutions.
