Sharing mobility tales
Share
Save the date! The MSCA online presidency conference will take place from 15 to 16 November. It will focus on return mobility and the reintegration processes of MSCA researchers, after the completion of their scholarships. Find out how your story can contribute to address the challenges of this very special period in the life of an MSCA fellow.
This year, the MSCA will celebrate their 25th anniversary within the framework of the Slovenian Presidency of the Council of the EU 2021. In this scope, the MSCA presidency conference will shed a light on the new European Research Area (ERA), and on the mobility of researchers, as well as on the flow of knowledge.
Focusing on the importance of return mobility and reintegration processes to foster balanced mobility flows of MSCA researchers, the conference will be an opportunity to showcase examples of good practices, instruments, and policies to promote the return migration and reintegration of MSCA fellows.
Eventually, participants will be expected to make recommendations for the implementation of MSCA return migration and reintegration instruments and policies.
