Periodic Reporting for period 2 - GLOBAL_AT_VENICE (GLOBAL_AT_VENICE - Research and Training for Global Challenges Cofund Fellowship Programme)

Période du rapport: 2023-01-01 au 2025-12-31

Résumé du contexte et des objectifs généraux du projet

The Global at Venice Research and Training for Global Challenges gave 16 talented researchers from all over the world the opportunity to undertake their 24 months research and training activity at Ca’ Foscari University of Venice.
The programme’s aim was to attract the best possible candidates, deepen and develop their knowledge and competencies in order to improve and sharpen their employability on the job market both in the academic and non-academic world, and to extend and strengthen their professional network.
Fellows had the opportunity to complete secondments, bridging the gap between academic and applied research, and between research and market.
The programme was open to all nationalities and to researchers within eight years from finishing their PhD Degree.

Travail effectué depuis le début du projet jusqu’à la fin de la période considérée dans le rapport et principaux résultats atteints jusqu’à présent

Following a Programme set-up phase, which included creating a customised application portal, two calls for proposals were launched, and two cohort of Fellows were awarded.
Applicants went through a thorough selection process based on the scientific excellence of the proposal and the ability of the candidate to carry out their project.
The list of funded projects is available on the dedicated webpage https://www.unive.it/pag/40619/
Training happened on different levels: they could plan the training for the individual project needs, the training offered within the programme, and Fellows could also take advantage of the possibilities of network and support offered by the relevant Research Institutes.
Fellows were able to do secondments, had the possibility to organise or co-organise events; to present their research at conferences, and in doing so they strengthen and expanded their networks.
All Fellowships were completed within the duration of the programme.

Progrès au-delà de l’état des connaissances et impact potentiel prévu (y compris l’impact socio-économique et les conséquences sociétales plus larges du projet jusqu’à présent)

Overall, the University benefitted from knowledge sharing and brain circulation: all stakeholders developed stronger research and innovation links among them.
The programme has just ended and so far, 4 Fellows have reached a permanent position.
The programme counts a good number of publications, and more are coming over 2026 and 2027.
Overall, the Fellows stated they had the time and the space to think, to study, to explore, and this Fellowship gave them the academic freedom to conduct and focus solely on their research, sharpening their scholarly skills and significantly enhancing their academic profile.
They were able to build partnerships that, in their words, will continue. This was possible also thanks to the status of the MSCA actions that opened doors that would not have opened without this kind of Fellowships.
