Seminar #4  on May 7, 2018:

Based on the feedback received from the research institutes’ affiliates through the mini survey conducted at the beginning of this year and the ambitions formalised in the idea of the joint Area of Strength application “Responsible Organising” (RO), we identified the need and the opportunity to organise a workshop about joint project funding applications around the node of RO targeting next fall and beyond. The purpose of the workshop is to develop cross-disciplinary collaborations at a concrete level through finding synergies and common interests.

Several projects funding applications were briefly presented, then the participants were invited to exchange ideas on different projects or ideas.

Presenters were:
