Call for interest: Virtual Mobility grants - a new COST tool for funded cooperation - SHORT NOTICE

[Chair enetCollect]

Dear all,

 

We would like to draw your attention to a new networking tool that was recently introduced by COST: Virtual Mobility grants.

See Section 10, Vadmecum: https://www.cost.eu/vademecum

 

At the moment we are preparing the strategy for assigning the VM grants. There will be up to 6 grants awarded of up to 1500 euros each.

An official call for applications will follow on 26/07 after we have gained an overview of potential topics of interest.

The Virtual Mobility grants have to contribute to the Actions objectives and particular priority will be given to activities that contribute to the Working Group deliverables.
In that perspective, the official call will include a list of suggestions of topics to tackle. However, any activity related to enetCollect’s ambition can potentially be funded.

 

The proposed activities have to be carried out in August 2021. Please be aware that unlike for STSMs no travels are foreseen for Virtual Mobility grants.

 

In case you are interested in possibly applying for one of these grants to pursue an enetcollect-relevant activity, please send a quick email with your expression of interest to chair.en...@eurac.edu with enetCol...@googlegroups.com in CC as soon as possible but no later than 16th of July.

The expression of interest is an informal communication that can be in any format, however feel invited to include some key information that can be helpful for us to best understand your ideas.

 

Key information:
- a title,
- a short description of the activity,
- its expected duration and dates.

Deadline for sending your expression of interest: 16/07

Launch of the official call for applications: 26/07

Notification of acceptance: 31/07

Activities are carried out: throughout August

 

If you have any questions or doubts, don’t hesitate to contact us.

 

Best,

Verena & Lionel
