Excellence and Inclusiveness

This policy is tailored to bring out excellence in science Europe-wide and clear away obstacles by creating cooperation opportunities for researchers, engineers and scholars from all COST Member Countries.

Features

Through bottom-up, open and excellence-driven COST Actions and activities, the policy nurtures talent and creativity.
It is developed around three main elements:
  • geographical spread
  • career stage: involving early career investigators
  • gender balance


Geographical spread includes less research-intensive COST Member Countries. They are entitled COST Inclusiveness Target Countries (ITCs) (Countries in bold are represented in MITOEAGLE) :
  • Bosnia-Herzigovina, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Croatia, Hungary, Lithuania, Latvia, Lusembourg, Malta, Montenegro, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovenia, Slovakia, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Republic of Serbia, Turkey


New COST networking tool

Particularly, COST will dedicate 50% of its overall budget to activities involving researchers from Inclusiveness Target Countries. Especially by fully developing and implementing its Inclusiveness Policy, COST aims to increase such researchers’ participation in COST Actions and activities, in relation to the European Commission’s approach to widening participation.
Therefore, a new COST networking tool called Conference Grants was added. Those Conference Grants are aimed at supporting PhD students and ECI researchers from Participating ITC
to attend international science and technology related conferences not specifically organised by the COST Action.
CONFERENCE GRANTS – ELIGIBILITY
The following eligibility criteria applies:
1. Conference Grants are exclusively reserved for PhD students and ECI’s with a primary affiliation
in an institution located in an ITC.
2. The applicant must make an oral/poster presentation at the conference in question and must be listed in the official event/conference programme. The main subject of the oral presentation / poster presentation / speech at the approved conference must be on the topic of the Action and must acknowledge COST (see Section 9).
3. The participation of each applicant must be pre-approved by the Action MC. Attendance at European conferences is preferred. However, conferences held elsewhere can also be considered.
