Each one links to its EU funding record and the partners it works with: a starting list for building a consortium.
Project results are expected to contribute to several of the following expected outcomes:
This topic aims at supporting the cooperation of pan-European research infrastructures with their international (non-European) counterparts, and/or fostering the international engagement of ESFRI and ERIC research infrastructures through their involvement in global research infrastructure initiatives[1].
Proposals should describe shared objectives and governance of the collaboration, building on the criteria developed by the Group of Senior Officials on Global Research Infrastructures[2].
Proposals should pay attention to the following aspects:
While the main target of this topic is the cooperation between an individual pan-European infrastructure and its international counterparts in one or more third countries, proposals could also involve a set of pan-European infrastructures with their international counterparts if relevant for the chosen research field.
Proposals should describe the EU benefit of any EU contribution requested by non-associated third countries, by explaining the new services or knowledge made accessible to EU researchers via the collaboration.
Proposals should consider the Council Recommendation of 23 May 2024 on enhancing research security[3] and take into account its principles for responsible internationalisation.
