Objective ENTITLE will train 17 researchers in the emerging supra-disciplinary field of Political Ecology, giving them the theoretical, analytical and complementary skills that will make them employable in jobs related to environmental policy analysis and advocacy. Research and training are framed around five key cluster sub-programmes concerned with the analysis of: environmental conflicts; environmental movements; natural disasters; changes in the commons; and environmental justice and democracy. Research is based on a series of empirical-based investigations of a geographically and thematically diverse set of case-studies. The researchers of the network will collaborate to offer a theoretical and methodological framework for the empirical research and will synthesise the results of the individual cases in a series of publishable outputs. Research will be action and policy-oriented culminating in a series of Action and Policy Briefs targeting civil society organizations and policy-makers. Training includes an integrated curriculum of local and intensive network courses, summer schools, secondments and training through work. Researchers will be seconded to and recruited by one SME and two NGO partners of the project, building bridges between academia and practice. ENTITLE builds on an on-going collaboration in training between the participating institutions, manifested in a series of successful summer schools. It brings together some of the world´s top scholars in the field, and overcomes the fragmentation of existing political ecological research in Europe, offering a critical mass of research and training. It is integrated with a number of related FP7 research projects, and builds on a network of reliable and capable partners with considerable experience in EU project management. The researchers trained in the network will be employable in academia, public administration, NGOs and the consultancy sector Programme(s) FP7-PEOPLE - Specific programme "People" implementing the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Community for research, technological development and demonstration activities (2007 to 2013) Topic(s) FP7-PEOPLE-2011-ITN - Marie-Curie Action: "Initial Training Networks" Call for proposal FP7-PEOPLE-2011-ITN See other projects for this call Funding Scheme MC-ITN - Networks for Initial Training (ITN) Coordinator UNIVERSITAT AUTONOMA DE BARCELONA Address Edif a campus de la uab bellaterra cerdanyola v 08193 Cerdanyola del valles Spain See on map Region Este Cataluña Barcelona Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Queralt Gonzalez Matos (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window EU contribution € 1 208 225,63 Participants (10) Sort alphabetically Sort by EU Contribution Expand all Collapse all CENTRO DE ESTUDOS SOCIAIS Portugal EU contribution € 424 184,20 Address Colegio s jeronimo praca d dinis 3000 995 Coimbra See on map Region Continente Centro (PT) Região de Coimbra Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact João Paulo Dias (Mr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window THE UNIVERSITY OF MANCHESTER United Kingdom EU contribution € 526 800,22 Address Oxford road M13 9PL Manchester See on map Region North West (England) Greater Manchester Manchester Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Liz Fay (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window MAX IV Laboratory, Lund University Sweden EU contribution € 237 972,90 Address Paradisgatan 5c 22100 Lund See on map Region Södra Sverige Sydsverige Skåne län Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Baeten Guy (Dr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window HUMBOLDT-UNIVERSITAET ZU BERLIN Germany EU contribution € 231 026,26 Address Unter den linden 6 10117 Berlin See on map Region Berlin Berlin Berlin Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Renate Ubachs (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window CHAROKOPEIO PANEPISTIMIO Greece EU contribution € 224 394,00 Address Eleftheriou venizelou 70 176 71 Athina See on map Region Αττική Aττική Νότιος Τομέας Αθηνών Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Smaragdi Antonopoulou (Prof.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window BOGAZICI UNIVERSITESI Türkiye EU contribution € 195 662,50 Address Bebek 34342 Istanbul See on map Region İstanbul İstanbul İstanbul Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Begum Ozkaynak (Dr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window UNIVERSIDAD DE CHILE Chile EU contribution € 168 823,85 Address Av. libertador bernardo o'higgins 1058 10 Santiago See on map Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Maria Christina Fragkou (Dr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window SERVEIS DE SUPORT A LA GESTIO SL Spain EU contribution € 216 609,84 Address Carrer josep llanza numero 7, planta 2a, oficina 3 08800 Vilanova i la geltru See on map Region Este Cataluña Barcelona Activity type Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Administrative Contact Miquel Ortega (Dr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window CENTRO DI DOCUMENTAZIONE SUI CONFLITTI AMBIENTALI ONLUS Italy EU contribution € 111 302,40 Address Largo vittorio gassman 2 00197 Roma See on map Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Lucie Greyl (Mrs.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window WATER AND ENVIRONMENTAL DEVELOPMENTORGANISATION ASSOCIATION NGO Palestine EU contribution € 105 312,10 Address Iskendar al khaoury str beit jala Bethlehem See on map Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Mira Edelstein (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window
