Programmes MSCA MSCAAfter their fellowship, Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) fellows are requested to complete two short surveys covering various issues including their integration within the host institution and the impact of the fellowship on their skills development, career and employability. The evaluation questionnaire is completed immediately after the end of their fellowship to review their experience, skills acquired and immediate next steps after their MSCA project. The follow-up questionnaire is submitted two years after the fellowship to gather further information on the more mid and long-term impact of the fellowship and the career trajectories of the fellows since. Some MSCA projects funded under Horizon 2020 (2014-2020) are still ongoing, so the programme continues to receive new responses from researchers and seconded staff following the end of their fellowship. Since 2021, regular reports have been published presenting the updated results and key findings from these questionnaires. This 2024 report provides an update on the results of these surveys, as well as a more specific analysis of the results focused on the different scientific fields. Summary of the report

The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
