  1. MarinERA Facilitating the Coordination of National and Regional Marine RTD Programmes in Europe

  2. MarinERA, The Context • The ERA-NET Scheme is about the coordination and cooperation of national and regional programmes […]“ (DG Research Website) • MarinERA Evolution - Need for enhanced co-ordination at the European level evident - Tradition of co-operation in marine research & logistics - Common issues associated with marine resources and research – trans- national • MarinERA project elaborated, funded by FP6

  3. MarinERA Aims • Provide a strategic and operational platform between national, EU and international structures: • Reduce fragmentation and duplication • Enhance coordination of marine research infrastructures • Facilitate reciprocal opening of national marine programmes • Establishment of common marine research programmes

  4. MarinERA Objectives • Develop a « marine component » within the ERA • Provide operational and strategic platform for sharing resources, to solve issues at a European level • Facilitate reciprocal opening of national programmes, developing joint calls and trans-national marine RTD programmes

  5. MarinERA – Progress Towards • Complementarity • MarinERA provides the operational aspect of the Marine Board’s traditional strategy and policy approach • Map programmes and specialized infrastructures • facilitate “internal market” • Facilitate networking of Funding Agencies • Contribute and support the EU Marine Research Policy (challenges, opportunities, priorities) • Common basis for sharing resources

  6. The Consortium • IFREMER, France - COORDINATOR • Marine Board ESF – OPERATIONAL MANAGEMENT • Marine Institute, Ireland • Research Council of Norway (RCN), Norway • Juelich Research Centre GmbH –Project Management Organisation Jülich (FZJ-PTJ), Germany • Spanish Ministry of Science and Technology (MCYT), Spain • Academy of Finland (AKA), Finland • Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO), The Netherlands • Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), UK • General Secretariat for Research and Technology, Ministry of Development, Greece (GSRT), Greece • Portuguese Science and Technology Foundation (FCT), Portugal • Belgian Federal Public Planning Service Science Policy (BELSPO), Belgium • Science and Innovation Administration, Ministry of the Flemish Community (AWI - Belgium), Belgium • Malta Council for Science and Technology (MCST), Malta • Ministry of Scientific Research and Information Technology, Poland (MSRIT), Poland Advisory Group • DFG • EFARO • EuroGOOS • EPB • French Research Ministry • IACMST • ICES • ERA-NETs • BONUS • AMP-ERA • ECORD-NET • NoEs • MARINE GENOMICS • MARBEF • EUR-OCEANS

  7. MarinERA Steering Commitee • Chair: Maurice Héral - Ifremer (Coordinator) • Management decisions (technical/exploitation/financial etc.) • Representatives of the 15 partners • Representatives of the 13 Advisory members (organisations, ERA-Nets, NoEs) • Meet every 6 months • Costs covered by the project funds

  8. MarinERA Technical Commitee • Executive manager: N.Connolly (MB-ESF) • TC Chair: G.O’Sullivan (MI, Ireland) • WP1 – Information ExchangeGeoffrey O’Sullivan, MI, Ireland • WP2 – Strategic ActivitiesBeatriz Morales, MEC, Spain • WP3 – Joint ActivitiesRaymond Schorno, NWO, The Netherlands • WP4 – Transnational ActivitiesPhilip Newton, NERC, United Kingdom • WP5 – ManagementYann Maubras, Ifremer, France • Meet every 6 months

  10. MarinERA ResultantBenefits & Impacts • Inventories & descriptions (national programmes and research facilities) • Guidelines of best practices in funding programme management • Analysis of barriers to cooperation among Member States: « Position Paper » • Guidelines of common evaluation procedures and research programmes performance indicators • Position paper on « European Marine Infrastructure Strategy » • Elaboratation of a joint « pilot » call for proposals, followed by 1 to 3 « operational » calls • Publication of a « Marine Science Research Strategy » paper • Integrated and interactive information system

  11. MarinERA MIF & MPM • MIF (Marine Infrastructure management Forum)- provide information on MS Programmes and to input to the various WP on marine programme implementation;- RV & mobile structures, observing & monitoring systems, land-based infrastructure, data management;- establishment of joint programmes, possibly common calls; • MPM ( Marine Program Management Forum)- exchange of info, data collection, process of evaluation;- facilitate programmes reciprocal opening;

  12. Summary • MarinERA builds upon dynamics of : • Institute networks (Marine Board, EuroGOOS, EFARO, BONUS, etc…) • CREST WG on national programmes • MB - Integrating Marine Science in Europe • MarinERA aims to transform ideas into practical research management approaches
