ENLACE - Travel Grant Scheme: third call now open

The aim of the ENLACE travel grant scheme is to promote exchange between Central American and European researchers as well as to encourage contacts between research institutions for joint participation in the Seventh Framework Programme (FP7). The grant scheme works as a mechanism to facilitate networking or even joint proposal writing.
The third call is now open from the 9th of March to the 10th of May 2012.

It supports researchers from the EU Member States and the Central American countries to meet their counterparts from the other region for a joint preparation of a project proposal / cooperation in one of the upcoming FP7 calls (July 2012) of the Cooperation Programme or of the People Programme.

Researchers may stay up to 30 days in Central America or the EU for the joint preparation of a project proposal.

In order to maximize the benefits of the researchers’ stay in the EU or Central America, it is envisaged that the grantees visit additional research institutions of their thematic interest (but within one of the thematic FP7 areas).
