AMerican Bridge for the Excellence in Research with Europe

Objective

"The aim of AMBER is the implementation of precise and sustainable actions to increase the researchers’ mobility between Latin America and Europe. These actions would improve the intercontinental mobility providing continuity to those researchers who currently develop their activity in Europe, facilitating the return of European investigators avoiding the brain drain, and attracting high-skilled scientists.

To reach this general objective three secondary goals are defined:

(1) To provide access to qualified information, in the ""Knowledge triangle"" (education, science and technology and innovation), to LAC researchers, avoiding the current spread information (*1 *30). This activity will benefit the prior stage to the researcher’s arrival.

(2) To minimize the problems caused by the existing administrative barriers (immigration, homologation, idiomatic, recruitment’s procedures, …) to expedite the integration of the LAC researcher in the European destination (*4). This activity will benefit the researcher and its family both prior to and during the stay.

(3) To support the Career Development Plan of the researchers in their stay in Europe by means of actions focused on facilitating and assuring the residence of Latin-American researchers improving the conditions of stay and work, by raising the quality of the assistance provided, through the implementation of a Training Plan of the mobility managers on scientific cooperation with Latin America (*1 *30)"
