Science, research and developmentEuropean Commission HUMAN FACTOR, MOBILITY AND MARIE CURIE ACTIONS Page 10 Marie Curie Schemes - Proposal for FP6 2 - General Objectives of the programme Specific programme : “to provide broad support for the development of abundant and dynamic world-class human resources in the European research system, taking into account the inherent international dimension of research.”
11
Science, research and developmentEuropean Commission HUMAN FACTOR, MOBILITY AND MARIE CURIE ACTIONS Page 11 Marie Curie Schemes - Proposal for FP6 Specific objectives of the programme 1 - To increase the number and the quality of researchers in Europe Rationale : –Maintaining researchers in the profession and in the European research area by giving favourable career development prospects and a positive image of the researcher's profession –Attracting more students to research, in particular through the increase in financial incentives –Attracting international researchers to Europe and developing international dimension of scientific careers
12
Science, research and developmentEuropean Commission HUMAN FACTOR, MOBILITY AND MARIE CURIE ACTIONS Page 12 Marie Curie Schemes - Proposal for FP6 Marie Curie Actions : Accent on the initial training for Early Stage Researchers by host institutions : –MC Research Training Networks (balance between early stage researchers and experienced researchers), –Hosts fellowships for Early Stage Research Training (ESR) –Conferences and training courses
13
Science, research and developmentEuropean Commission HUMAN FACTOR, MOBILITY AND MARIE CURIE ACTIONS Page 13 Marie Curie Schemes - Proposal for FP6 2 - To train experienced researchers at crucial stage in their research career development Rationale : Response to the individual needs of experienced researchers for complementary training (including in management, communication ethics, …), training at crucial stage of researchers career, concept of life-long learning, boost towards autonomy of researchers,... Marie Curie Actions : –MC intra european fellowships, –MC Outgoing International Fellowships, –MC Incoming International Fellowships.
14
Science, research and developmentEuropean Commission HUMAN FACTOR, MOBILITY AND MARIE CURIE ACTIONS Page 14 Marie Curie Schemes - Proposal for FP6 3 - To encourage the promotion and recognition of excellence Rationale : –support to he creation/extension of excellence team built around a researcher having early in his/her career a potential of excellence –recognition of excellence attraction of the best researchers in the world Marie Curie Actions : –MC Excellence grants –Marie Curie awards –Marie Curie Chairs
15
Science, research and developmentEuropean Commission HUMAN FACTOR, MOBILITY AND MARIE CURIE ACTIONS Page 15 Marie Curie Schemes - Proposal for FP6 4 - To encourage the Transfer of Knowledge and intersectorial collaborations Rationale : –support the Transfer of Knowledge (acquisition and transfer of new knowledge) in particular less favoured regions MS/AS –support the intersectorial long lasting collaboration between Academia and industry Marie Curie Actions : –MC Development Scheme : hosting researchers and sending out staff members –MC Industry-Academia Strategic Partnership Scheme : exchange of researchers; mutual benefit/collaboration

Science, research and developmentEuropean Commission HUMAN FACTOR, MOBILITY AND MARIE CURIE ACTIONS Page 16 Marie Curie Schemes - Proposal for FP6 5 - To give added value to mobility period and to fight against brain-drain Rationale : –give added value to mobility period –fight against brain-drain Marie Curie Actions : –MC International reintegration grants –MC European reintegration grants
17
Science, research and developmentEuropean Commission HUMAN FACTOR, MOBILITY AND MARIE CURIE ACTIONS Page 17 Marie Curie Schemes - Proposal for FP6 Some good reasons to take part in MC Actions…. To invest in HR = (means) to invest in intellectual capital, base of the knowledge economy To attract the best competencies from abroad (EU/AS/Third countries) To benefit from brain circulation (and from free movement of ideas) To create synergies with other research centres To benefit from a financial contribution up to 100 %

21
Science, research and developmentEuropean Commission HUMAN FACTOR, MOBILITY AND MARIE CURIE ACTIONS Page 21 Marie Curie Schemes - Proposal for FP6 Main Features: continuity and evolution Coherent approach, (initial training, advanced training, excellence, reintegration) "bottom-up" approach i.e. all fields of science and technological interest for the European Community Multidisciplinary projects are encouraged Promotion of female participation : “objective of at least 40 % selection of women” Personal circumstances relating to mobility, particularly with respect to the family, career development and languages Marie Curie label: a common identity Opening of schemes to 3 rd country nationals & hosts Full participation of Associated States
