MSCA Staff Exchanges promote innovative international, inter-sectoral and interdisciplinary collaboration in research and innovation through exchanging staff and sharing knowledge and ideas at all stages of the innovation chain. The scheme fosters a shared culture of research and innovation that welcomes and rewards creativity and entrepreneurship and helps turn ideas into innovative products, services or processes. It is open to research, technical, administrative and managerial staff supporting R&I activities.

HORIZON EUROPE - Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions (MSCA) The Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA), part of Horizon Europe, are the European Union’s flagship funding programme for doctoral education and postdoctoral training of researchers. There are 5 types of MSCA targeting different objectives: 1) Doctoral Networks (DN): supporting programmes to train doctoral candidates in academic and non-academic organisations. DN aim to train creative, entrepreneurial, innovative and resilient doctoral candidates, able to face current and future challenges and to convert knowledge and ideas into products and services for economic and social benefit. DN will equip researchers with the right combination of research-related and transferable competences and provide them with enhanced career perspectives in both the academic and non-academic sectors through international, interdisciplinary and inter-sectoral mobility combined with an innovation-oriented mind-set. 2) Postdoctoral Fellowships (PF): supporting career perspectives and excellence of postdoctoral researchers. The goal of PF is to enhance the creative and innovative potential of researchers holding a PhD, wishing to acquire new skills through advanced training, international, interdisciplinary and inter-sectoral mobility. PF are open to excellent researchers of any nationality, including researchers wishing to reintegrate in Europe, researchers who are displaced by conflict as well as researchers with high potential aiming for a career restart in research. The scheme also encourages researchers to work on research and innovation projects in the non-academic sector. 3) Staff Exchanges (SE): encouraging collaborations between organisations through staff exchanges. SE promote innovative international, inter-sectoral and interdisciplinary collaboration in research and innovation through exchanging staff and sharing knowledge and ideas at all stages of the innovation chain. 4) COFUND: co-funding of regional, national and international programmes. 5) MSCA and Citizens: bringing research and researchers closer to the public at large, through the European Researchers’ Night.
