Published on | 2 years ago

Programmes MSCA Horizon Europe

A call for a pilot European Fellowship Scheme for Researchers at Risk is currently open with deadline 7 September 2023. The indicative call budget is €6 million to fund one project. The main objective of the call is:

  • to pilot a European fellowship scheme to support researchers at risk to address the currently fragmented and limited support at EU level for researchers at risk.
  • to enhance the support for researchers at risk to continue their work in a safe environment.
  • to set up, test and validate selection procedures for at-risk researchers and matchmaking with hosts in the EU (approximately 30 fellowships for non-EU researchers with different legal statuses).

The European Fellowship Scheme for Researchers at Risk action was allocated to the Directorate-General for Education, Youth, Sport and Culture (DG EAC) and the implementation will be monitored by the European Research Executive Agency (REA). Please find in these two videos more information on the background and application procedure for this call.

MareGraph - Towards an Interoperable Marine Knowledge Graph

The MareGraph project, ‘Towards an Interoperable Marine Knowledge Graph’, obtained funding under the Digital Europe topic ‘OPEN-AI – Public Sector Open Data for AI and Open Data Platform’. The project will increase the semantic, technical, and legal interoperability of three selected high-valued datasets (HVDs) all maintained by the Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), which is one of the four partners of the project. This will allow the onboarding of essential marine datasets in the Common European Data Spaces. As such MareGraph will provide a structural component in the digital transition of the marine landscape. The numerous impacts of the project will benefit our seas globally in old and new ways to come.
