FACILITATING MACRO-REGIONAL SCOPE AND LINK UP TO SOCIO-ECONOMIC ACTORS OF RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURES IN THE DANUBE REGION

Our project mission is to improve framework conditions for research infrastructure and innovation in the Danube region. Therefore, ResInfra@DR facilitates enhanced transnational cooperation and a macro-regional scope of the sustainable development of research infrastructures.

DeAR READERS!

2 more months to go for the ResInfra@DR project! With its 11th newsletter the project partners want to inform you about project’s pilot actions and news from the wider RI community in the Danube macro-region and beyond.

Take your chance to meet RI experts from the Danube Region at the ResInfra@DR Know-how exchange meeting in Bratislava on 22-23 May 2019. The event will put a focus on current and future research infrastructure support activities in the Danube macro-region and will present more than 10 ResInfra@DR pilot activities. Moreover, we invite you to the ResInfra@DR Information Day in Sarajevo on 14 May and to our final ResInfra@DR event in Vienna on 12-13 June (the save-the-date can be accessed online…).

Know-how exchange forum in Bratislava on 22-23 May 2019

One key objective of ResInfra@DR is to contribute to the efforts for establishing new RIs and upgrading the existing ones by strengthening both policy-making and managerial capacities in the Danube macro-region.

Throughout the last year the ResInfra@DR project has offered support to interested research infrastructures in Danube region concerned with management challenges during their regular operations or specific phases of their establishment. The ResInfra@DR Know-how exchange forum provides an excellent venue for stakeholders (including final recipients of support such as involved research entities and infrastructures) to reflect on the current challenges of the initiatives and the proposed recommendations. In addition, a reflection of the process itself should reveal the potential of similar mutual support actions in the Danube macro-region, and how far similar actions should be included in a joint action plan. In order to provide ground for reflection, the organisers have invited currently developing RIs and already successful initiatives to allow a wider sharing of experiences.

Agenda & registration
The event is open to RI experts and stakeholders from media. In case of interest, please contact Ms Anna Krivjanska, (CVTI SR) to gain further details and the agenda: anna.krivjanska@cvtisr.sk

Next Information Session on Research Infrastructures in the Danube Region in Sarajevo

The ResInfra@DR project recently started the event series “ResInfra@DR Information Sessions on Research Infrastructures in the Danube macro-region” adressed to RI policymakers, RI managers and further experts from associated fields: the aim of these workshops is to present the project results and to identify future joint actions for stronger cooperation in the area of RI as well as to involve relevant regional/national stakeholders to contribute and collaborate and make use of the results in the future. Meetings were organised during April in Ukraine, Moldova and Montenegro.
Events reflect on current challenges and RI developments in the respective countries and reflect how to address the topic of RI in the Danube macro-region in future. Workshops involve relevant regional/national stakeholders and facilitate the use of results in future.

Get in involved on 14 May 2019 at the University of Sarajevo
If your are interested in this event series please contact Ms Carmen Siller, (ZSI) to gain further details and the agenda (the confirmed registration is mandatory for your participation): siller@zsi.at
