Methodologies for Teamworking in Eco-Outwards Research

Project description

Researcher transversal skills and teamworking methodologies

The increasing intermixing and collaboration among different industries, sectors, and disciplines have created a pressing need for skills that can be used in a wide variety of situations among workers, researchers and others. These ‘transversal’ skills facilitate improved innovation and coordination within research ecosystems. The EU-funded METEOR project aims to enhance the transversal skills of postgraduates and early-career researchers, recognising the benefits this could bring. Aligned with open science and responsible research and innovation principles and focusing on the UN Sustainable Development Goals the project will emphasise collaboration and interdisciplinary projects to tackle societal challenges and provide doctoral employment opportunities. It will also collect data to assess its efficiency, benefits and capacity for expansion, enabling effective communication with a growing audience.

Objective

The overall aim of METEOR is to improve the transversal skills of current postgraduates and early career researchers, with consequent benefits to research ecosystems, in line with Open Science and Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) and focused on the UN Sustainable Development Goals. METEOR emphasizes the capacity to collaborate, work in groups and to develop international transdisciplinary projects oriented towards societal challenges and doctoral employment opportunities.
METEOR has 6 specific objectives (SO) corresponding to its work package structure:
SO1: Effective Management (WP1).
SO2: Collect, analyse and report evidence supporting the need for an innovative doctoral training program (WP2).
SO3: Develop a comprehensive transversal skills training program comprising a suite of 10 online training resources, using participatory methodologies co-created with the PhDs, ECRs, institutions and researchers, to enhance the skills specified in the Call (WP3).
SO4: Implement the resources from WP3 and related activities in online and in-person delivery mode, with online and F2F events, and Peer Mentoring Groups consisting of 4-6 researchers collaborating for 15 months, with a target of 300 +/- individuals in 50 groups, preparing 50+ proposals based on UN SDGs and focused on impact (WP4).
SO5: Create policy and exploitation routes for increasing the scope of doctoral training at local and national levels (WP5).
SO6: Communicate and disseminate METEOR activities and results to a wider audience and ensure project’s continuity beyond the funded period (WP6).
METEOR activities will benefit doctoral candidates (employment prospects/ earnings), institutions (recruiting PhD candidates, better supervision, more impactful research), industry/public sector (employees with high level research and transversal skills) and society generally (more research focused on challenges).
