The 23 Mobility Centres Are Quite Different • Strong Mobility Centres: many services proposed, strong experience in welcoming researchers, many researchers, strong involvement • Stable Mobility Centres: good offer of services and good experience, but staff availability somewhat too low and/or low support from regional partners • Developing Mobility Centres: the support and/or organisation has been set up only recently • Emerging Mobility Centres: not enough researchers and low involvement
Common Objectives • The more researchers attracted to the region, the better (see graphic « scientific » stays / Regions) • The organisation and Coordination of welcoming is to be improved: better for our Prefectures, Universities and Research Organisations, and local communities / administrations • The follow-up of former guest researchers is to be developed: not much contact with them, but with their former hosts
Organisation • 5 « work packages » : • - Management • - Harmonization of the network and its services • - Training sessions • - Webportal • - Information and communication • Steering commitee : 3 Bridgeheads + Ministry for Research • Technical commitee : 3 Bridgeheads + Experts concerned (Ministries, Research Organisations, etc.) • 2 Workshops / year with the network
A communication tool for the network • Chroniques de la FnAK • E-mail Newsletter, about 6000 subscribers: 1/3 host researchers 2/3 guest researchers • Best practices • practical hints: entry rights, social security, lease, etc. • Every 2 Months, soon n° 43
