What does the open character of ESF Research Networking Programmes mean?
Activities of an ESF Research Networking Programme should have an open character. Principal participants within a Programme are expected to network during the Programme’s lifetime with colleagues in other relevant research groups, not necessarily listed in the proposal, to ensure that opportunities in the Programme’s activities are known and are open to other eligible participants. Activities proposed in the application should demonstrate this open character ensuring access to all the relevant research community through i.a. promotion of activities in the community and open calls for visits and science meetings.
