Objective
The project aims to foster international collaboration in MSCA with the 26 targeted geographies (TG26) by ensuring alignment with formal R&I policy dialogues at both bilateral/regional levels as well as complementing/coordinating existing local promotion channels. MSCA-GLOPOL will comprehensively assess existing cooperation policies, monitoring participation in MSCA calls, and develop synergies with other EU R&I initiatives. It introduces a novel methodology that relies on 11 action-oriented approaches (Desk Research, Stakeholder Mapping, Survey, Focus Group, Qualitative Monitoring, Quantitative Monitoring, Policy Briefs, Promotional Events, Coordinated Promotion Plans, Training & Best Practice Forum, Synergies) which responds to sources-processes-results continuum. Strategically, the project will mobilise 13 Regional Liaison Officers (RLOs) in TG26. The RLOs are local experts with excellent national/regional knowledge and together with MCAA chapter representatives are in an unparalleled position to access the target groups.
Critical expected outcomes include a broader global reach and deeper engagement in MSCA opportunities, more informed and adaptive bilateral and bi-regional cooperation strategies, and stronger alignment between MSCA activities and other EU initiatives. These impacts will directly benefit stakeholders such as EU and national policymakers, research institutions, researchers, and promotional actors who are essential to the success of MSCA and face challenges related to low awareness, uneven participation, and fragmented cooperation efforts. The consortium brings together a diverse but complimentary set of expertise. PRACSIS’s competence in providing policy insights, communication and dissemination ensures that the project’s outcomes have maximum impact and visibility while the MCAA’s experience in providing policy insights coupled with its global community of MSCA alumni provides invaluable understanding of local and European policy framework.
