Work Package 2 Mutual Learning

WP Leader: APRE, IT

WP2: Objectives

To transfer knowledge and experience on the day-

to-day activities of NCPs

To offer one-on-one support and opportunity for

exchange of best practices at a more detailed level than it would be possible through other trainings and workshops.

To improve and professionalise level of NCPs

WP2: 5 TASKS

 Task 2.1. Bilateral visits  Task 2.2. NCP training  Task 2.3. Network meetings  Task 2.4. Welcoming package  Task 2.5. Benchmarking: mapping NCP experience and

NCP needs

Task 2.1 Bilateral visits

Open to all Science with and for Society NCPs (members

• f the Consortium and Associated Partners)

Expected no. of visits: 18 Expected duration: min 1,5 day Expected benefits: exchange of best practices and capacity building

Task Leader: RPF, CY (Eleana Gabriel) Task support: AMEUP, HR (Marina Pražetina)

Task 2.1 Bilateral visits

Step 1: Invitation to submit proposals by cut – off dates Step 2: Each pair of NCPs (host and visitor) submits a proposal to the Task Force (RPF &HR)

Step 3: Evaluation of Proposals by Task Force (planned output & expected impact of the cooperation) Step 4: Task Leader informs applicants

• n the selection results.

Step 5: Bilateral visits followed by online communication

Eleana sent the

• invitation. First time

nobody answered, so she sent a reminder

Only Israel requested for pluri-lateral visit

Host NCP: Smadar Hirsh, ISERD Visiting NCPs: Pascale Van Dinter, BELSPO/STIS - Belgian Science Policy Office Denise Erpen, Euresearch, Switzerland Denise Bartolo, Malta Council for Science and Technology

Task 2.2 NCP training

Task leader: APRE, IT Task support: AMEUP , HR and RPF, CY

Task 2.2 NCP training

 Six trainings (M5, M8, M12, M 16, M25, M36) if possible

combined with other projects meetings.

 groups of maximum 20 participants.  A feedback form to assess the quality and the efficacy of

the training sessions will be collected by Task Leader and Task support in order to improve the training quality.

Task 2.2 NCP training

 First training (M3) was in March (30th) on RRI. 14 NCPs attended the event in

Edinburgh. The training was held by Peter gray, Peter Gray Research adviser, European Projects

Task 2.2 NCP training

 The second training (M8) is tomorrow on How to write a successful proposal.

The trainer is Maria Habicht - Estonian Research Council

 The third training (M12, october) will be in Rome on Legal and Financial

aspects of a Horizon 2020 project. The idea is to have it with the Health NCP network and with NCP Academy trainers.

 The fourth training (M16, february) on Evaluation of proposals in Spain.

Task 2.3. Network meetings

Task Leader: TC AV CR, CZ Task support: ETAg, EE and RANNIS, IS

Task 2.3. Network meetings

 The main objective of Task 2.3 is to create a regular

meeting platform for the cooperation of NCPs and for the interaction between NCPs and the European Commission as well as with some important stakeholders.

 The second objective is to improve the understanding of

Science with and for Society policy context for NCPs.

 Six network meetings, two meetings for each year of the

project (M8, M14, M21, M25, M29, M36)

Task 2.4 Welcoming package

Task Leader: MATIMOP-ISERD, IL Supporting Partner: FFG, AT

Task 2.4 Welcoming package

The Welcome Package:

 Welcome letter to be sent to newcomers  Information about available project activities  Make available: all Training materials and sources of

information

Task 2.5 Benchmarking: mapping NCP experience and NCP needs

Task leader: MATIMOP-ISERD, IL Task support: APRE, IT and TC AV CR, CZ

Task 2.5 Benchmarking

Purpose of the questionnaire and analasys of it:

 Identify the needs and expectations of NCPs for

additional knowledge

 Couple newcomers/less experienced NCPs with more

experienced NCPs

Task 2.5 Benchmarking

Questionnaire Dissemination:

 During KoM and also to all formally nominated Science

with and for Society NCPs not present at the meeting On Going throughout the lifetime of the project:

 Periodically via the sisncp@mm.etag.ee
