Survey on the added value of MSCA PhDs

Published on | 6 months ago

Programmes MSCA MSCA

The European Research Executive Agency (REA) of the European Commission is conducting a survey to gather (anonymous) feedback on the added value of MSCA PhDs, in comparison to other doctoral programmes.

The survey is addressed to principal investigators/supervisors as well as PhD researchers (PhD completed or ongoing) involved in MSCA and non-MSCA funded projects.

This feedback is highly valuable as it will help to improve the MSCA Doctoral Networks programme, which is managed by the REA. It will also feed into the European Commission’s wider policy reflections for the forthcoming period: promoting excellence in doctoral education and training is relevant to their strategic objectives for both the European Research Area (ERA) and the European Education Area (EEA), and contributes to the implementation of the European Strategy for Universities (here and here)             .

The survey can be accessed here and the Data Protection Notice here. Please note that it may take up to 1-2 minutes for the survey to load completely. The survey should take approximately 15 minutes to complete. The survey will remain open until 10 November 2024.

YoPA – Youth-centered participatory action for a healthy lifestyle

The YoPA project, ‘a youth-centred preventive action approach towards co-created implementation of socially and physically activating environmental interventions’ obtained funding from Horizon Europe’s Health Cluster. The project addresses the multifaceted challenges of physical inactivity and health inequalities through a unique participatory approach. The project places teenagers between 12 and 18 years old in vulnerable situations at the forefront of the intervention process. The Institute of Tropical Medicine is a partner in the project and will conduct a Realist Evaluation to understand how youth co-creation contributes to improved adolescent health and well-being in four cities in Denmark, Netherlands, Nigeria and South Africa.  By integrating its results and sharing its approach in an open access Toolbox, ITM aims to contribute to fostering sustainable, youth-led solutions for healthier urban environments.
