Raising perspectives for talented researchers by institutions implementing the Human Resources Strategy (HRS4R) & Complying with art. 32 of the H2020 multi-beneficiary grant agreement

This event addresses all beneficiaries and potential applicants of H2020 contracts/projects who need to comply with article 32 stipulating the need to take measures to implement the European Charter and Code (C & C) for the benefit of all researchers and their institution.

The purpose of the event is to fully inform ‘newcomers’ (research performing and research funding organisations) on the principles of Charter and Code and their implementation as recommended in H2020 multi-beneficiary Grant Agreement.

The structured implementation of the C&C principles via the Human Resources Strategy for Researchers (HRS4R) to comply with art 32 will be explained by DG RTD; successful implementation is awarded by the Commission Services and evidences a first step towards compliance with article 32 of the H2020 grant agreement.

Invited high-level HR Managers from different European countries will evidence benefits and impact and give arguments of persuasion, speak about improved training opportunities, career development and do's and don’ts when getting started. Finally, an insight view of assessing applications will be featured by one of our experienced assessors regularly involved in the assessment process.
