Programmes MSCA MSCA

The Falling Walls Lab MSCA 2024 edition will take place on 18 and 19 April 2024 in Mons, Belgium, as part of the MSCA conference organised under the Belgian Presidency of the Council of the European Union.

This edition is now accepting submissions that showcase the quality, diversity and passion of the most innovative minds participating in the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA). The Falling Walls Lab competition is an opportunity for MSCA fellows to present their projects and innovative ideas to the scientific community through 3-minute talks. During the talks the speakers explain how their research helps to break down walls in science and society. Academic and research institutions around the world organise their own competitions at local and regional level under the supervision of Falling Walls Lab. The winners compete at the Finale which takes place in November in Berlin.

This edition will give the floor to 15 excellent communicators from all disciplines, with exciting research topics, new ideas and discoveries. Fellows from all Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions are encouraged to apply. This includes early-stage and experienced researchers and staff working in research and innovation. Contestants will have a unique occasion to take part in a professional coaching programme and travel to Belgium to attend the MSCA conference.

Submissions can be send until the deadline 23 February 12:00 CET. All information related to the competition, including requirements, the application form and web form to submit a 2-minute video, can be found in this article.

STARGATE - Sustainable Aviation

The Stargate project obtained funding under the special Green Deal call of Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic of “green ports and airports”.  It received the maximum score of the evaluators and was selected out of more than 40 projects. Stargate’s purpose is to prove that sustainable aviation is possible and happening. It focuses on the further decarbonization of the aviation industry, the improvement of local environmental quality and the stimulation of the modal split. Together with a consortium of 21 European partners with a diverse and rich expertise (airports, community partners, knowledge institutions, consultants, local governments, …), Brussels Airports takes the lead as lighthouse airport to develop and implement innovative solutions. Results that prove successful can be deployed at the fellow airports (Toulouse, Budapest, Athens). Over the course of the coming five years, the consortium will exchange knowledge to investigate and realize more than 30 concrete projects.
