ARIMNET2 is launching a Joint Transnational Call for research projects proposals based on funds from participating countries.
It will enable collaborative interdisciplinary projects based on complementarities between scientists, disciplines and countries, and sharing of knowledge in a broad scope of research topics. It aims to promote international collaboration to create research consortia in order to respond appropriately to the global stakes and challenges Mediterranean Agriculture is facing.
The Joint Call will enable the implementation of collaborative research projects based on complementarities between scientists, disciplines, and exchange of expertise within the scope of the research themes addressed by the Call. Integrated and multidisciplinary approaches would be encouraged, as they are generally needed to address complex issues.
Each project proposal must:
- Involve researchers from at least three countries members of ARIMNET2 (at least one from the EU/Associated Countries and one from the Southern and Eastern Mediterranean Countries) providing funds for this Joint Call. Additional researchers from other countries are welcome in a project consortium, but will have to fund their own contribution to the research project.
- Be of a maximum duration of 36 months.
- Be written in English, using the ARIMNET2 Application Forms provided on the submission website and details found in the ARIMNET2 Guidelines for Applicants.
- Fit the formal requirements for proposal submission.
Selection and funding of projects under this joint initiative shall be on a competitive basis. The total maximum National Budget for this Call is of €39,000.
Through this call, the ARIMNet2 consortium supports integrated and trans-disciplinary research projects aimed at producing innovations for enhancing the contribution of agricultural and food systems to sustainable social and economic development.
The ARIMNet2 2016 call covers two topics:
Topic 1: Promoting sustainable agriculture for socio-economic development.
Topic 2: Valorising local products through food value chains improvement.
