Travel Grant Scheme to facilitate the participation of Armenian researchers in Brokerage Events
The Grant Scheme
Objectives
To financially support the participation of local researchers from Armenia in large-scale Brokerage events and other similar activities related to Horizon2020 in EU/AC countries. Such events provide an excellent arena for researchers to liaise and develop synergies, the participation therefore of researchers from the targeted countries will increase their opportunities to get involved and be taken onboard in consortia set up in EU/AC countries. It will also allow the researchers to make their institutions and/or their research networks better known.
The Scheme provides grants to researchers for covering travel and subsistence expenses, visa costs and conference fees, which will be reimbursed.
The thematic priorities and events
The thematic priorities of the call are the three Societal Challenges: Health, Energy and Climate Change.
