The call is targeted at intensifying short-term cooperation in the scientific field of “Changing Identities in South Eastern Europe: Between Europeanisation, Globalisation, Regionalisation and Nationalism”, with the aim of supporting the development of long-term scientific collaboration.

The total funding available for this call for proposals is 120.000 Euro; a maximum of 20.000 Euro per project is envisaged. The allowable funding per project must be justified by the content, work load, duration and number of teams involved. For projects with higher financial costs, co-financing is expected.

The funded activities shall enable researchers from Austria, Slovenia and the Western Balkan countries to work together on mutually beneficial science driven projects. The main goal is to promote scientific networking and the exchange of research results and know-how. Possible project activities are: comparative studies, mapping and know-how exchange on European standards and practices in the specified areas etc. The activities should therefore build on already existing scientific results.
