Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)
'The objective of this proposal is to reinforce the quality, effectiveness and coherence of the services provided by the EURAXESS Services Network for mobile researchers. It will achieve this objective by promoting trans-national co-operation along with identification, refinement and exchange of best practice. The actions will focus on enhancing the local and overall performance of the network and stimulate operational and strategic cooperation within the network. The project will be implemented through exchange of best practice between the members of the Network. This will be done through collecting information and experiences from all of the members. The results will be analysed and a strategy for implementation and raising awareness will be developed. Joint workshops will be used to share best practice / information and provide training, tailored to the needs of Network members. A handbook of best practice will be published. Presentation and promotion of main findings will take place at a dedicated European level conference as well as in training sessions at national and institutional level. Follow-up activities will be coordinated with the Commission and the "Charter and Code Promoters' Network" and the “Charter/Code Pioneer Institutions." The project will stimulate a better and more systematic use of the European EURAXESS Jobs Portal and the national EURAXESS portals - to enhance effectively open recruitment practices for researchers across Europe. Combined, this is expected to facilitate recruitment and mobility of researchers throughout Europe in line with the new European Partnership for Researchers for developing the European Research Area (ERA).'
Introduzione (Teaser)
By strengthening the Euraxess research network for recruitment, the EU is paving the way for increased researcher mobility and encouraging employment.
Descrizione progetto (Article)
Euraxess is a network spanning 35 European countries that helps researchers find employment anywhere in Europe. It promotes exchange and mobility to the benefit of the European Research Area (ERA), and ultimately the economy. Euraxess operates on local, national and regional levels, and helps remove obstacles to researchers' mobility by providing key information including immigration, funding opportunities, social security and pensions. It operates through help desks and a website where researchers post CVs and link with research institutes.
Lately there have been several complimentary initiatives to support Euraxess. One of these is 'Enhancing the outreach and effectiveness of the partners in the Euraxess Services Network' (Euraxess T.O.P.) The project is reinforcing the quality, effectiveness and coherence of the services provided by the Euraxess Services Network for mobile researchers. It is promoting transnational cooperation and developing applicable best practices by collecting information and experiences from all Euraxess members.
The Euraxess T.O.P. project is coordinated by a German organisation is represented by 10 more countries (Bulgaria, Estonia, France, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Israel, Norway, Spain and Sweden). Most other EU countries in the Euraxess network are also contributing on a voluntary basis. The consortium of partners is developing an electronic handbook on how to design and run a Euraxess Services Centre, complete with a collection of best practices and checklists for quality management issues. It is also improving the contents and structure of national portals and promoting the Euraxess Jobs section, in addition to organising workshops for the services centres.
Lately, the team has been outlining the structure of national networks and collecting over 100 best practices on running a services centre. It has also been working on checklists and other tools for quality assessment of the work already carried out by these centres. Funding for upgrading the portals in different participating countries is also being considered, coupled with each country's commitment to continue promoting the portal and supporting its purpose. In addition, two workshops were conducted in 2010 by experienced Euraxess staff members who helped participants establish new centres and identify potential trainers.
The single most important outcome of this project will undoubtedly be the electronic handbook to set up more centres. Once it is published, complete with feedback from the workshops, the establishment of more Euraxess services centres will become easier and more efficient. Ultimately, this will enhance researcher exchange, facilitate mobility and support recruitment across Europe.
