Frequent Questions
What are the opportunities for academic organisations?
The fellowships enable organisations to host highly talented researchers, whose proposals are competitively peer-reviewed inter alia on the basis of research excellence. The researchers must have a certain amount of experience in the profession, as they must be in possession of a doctorate or have at least four years of fulltime research experience behind them (the latter experience starts after the degree entitling him/her to embark on a doctorate). Furthermore, they will bring experience from elsewhere (in Europe), as the Individual Fellowship scheme requires mobility to a host organisation in another country.
Under the Global Fellowship (GF) scheme, the fellow moves from Europe to a third country (e.g. Singapore) for between one and two year(s), followed by a year at a host organisation in a Member State or Associated Country.
An additional advantage to the host organisation is that the grant provides a complete financing package: up to three (GF) years of living, mobility and family allowances for the benefit of the individual researcher, as well as support to the host organisation for research costs, management and overheads.
Frequent Questions
Can researchers of any nationality participate the GF scheme?
The Global Fellowships are restricted to nationals or long-term residents of EU Member States or Associated Countries. Long-term residents are defined as researchers who spent a period of full-time research activity of at least five consecutive years (without breaks in research) in one or more Member States or Associated Countries.
Can EU funds be transferred to a third country (e.g. Singapore), including the funding intended to cover indirect costs?
The EU contribution must be directly managed by the host organisation established in an EU Member State or Associated Country (beneficiary of the grant). However, in the case of the Global Fellowships and under the responsibility of the beneficiary, parts of the EU contribution can be transferred to the host organisation in a third country (partner organisation). It is highly encouraged to define these financial arrangements in a partnership agreement according to the needs of the project. Arrangements between the beneficiary and the partner organisation in a third country are an internal matter for the partnership. However, during the audit the beneficiary will need to demonstrate that the researcher was working on the action and that the expected allowances (living, mobility and family allowances) were fully paid to him/her. Details on management or indirect costs will not be requested.
