MED-SPRING Training on Innovation

The main aim of the project is to contribute to the quality of the Euro-Mediterranean research area, with a particular focus on the bi-regional Euro-Mediterranean science and technology cooperation, research and innovation, policy dialogue and cooperation monitoring.

Research and Innovation are among the main assets for increasing countries’ competitiveness while addressing specific societal challenges. Cooperation activities and EU-funded projects can engage European and Mediterranean partner countries in a joint effort to develop specific subject areas targeted by innovation. With this in mind, the overall objectives of the training session are to strengthen participants’ capacities in research and innovation cooperation through the improvement of the knowledge and skills required to promote innovation at institutional level. The hope is that this will contribute towards the implementation of research and innovation strategies at local and national level and help encourage networking for building international research and innovation partnerships and identifying funding opportunities.

The training is addressed to officials and experts from the following countries: Algeria, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Palestine, Tunisia, Iran and Iraq.
