FEMISE has just launched its 2018/19 Internal Competition under the theme “Priorities of the EU-MED region”. Members of the FEMISE network who participated as affiliates of FEMISE in the European Commission Call are invited to submit research proposals before 3 September 2018.

Winning proposals will meet the criteria of having a real value added (generating fresh knowledge), using rigorous and sound methodology, and having the potential of offering policy recommendations.

All proposals have to be submitted in consortiums as follows: at least one affiliate member from the North AND one affiliate member from the South. Each consortium should have one Team Leader who will send the proposal on behalf of the consortium and will be responsible for the project (in terms of its executing, deliverables and admin process).

The total budget envelope for all selected proposals in this fourth round of the internal competition will be approximately €64,000.

This fourth call for internal competition completes the research agenda for FEMISE for the four years Scientific Programme (2015-2019) by setting the Priorities of the EU-Med region.

FEMISE is an Association that receives EU-funding, aiming through its activities to contribute to the reinforcement of dialogue on economic and financial issues in the Euro-Mediterranean partnership, within the framework of the European Neighbourhood Policy and the Union for the Mediterranean. More specifically, it seeks to improve understanding of the priority stakes in the economic and social spheres, and their repercussions on the Mediterranean partners in the framework of their implementation of EU Association Agreements and Action Plans.
