Description

All COST Action participating teams involve many young researchers who will be further supported by the Action. In the backbone of Action 19% of the participants are ESR and several of them are potential MC members. An ESR-Coordinator is responsible for ESR-related activities. As first activity a "social scientific network services" based on free web software inside the Action managed by ESR components inside the different scientific teams has been created to promote the cohesion inside the specific scientific community and to point out the specific needs of the ESR components and the way to overcome them. By using this instrument the ESR group inside the Action will support new talents and actively involve ESRs into the definition process of the Action strategy, work-plans and activities. Furthermore, due to the strong interdisciplinary aspect of the Action, as many STSMs as possible - especially devoted to younger researchers - will be organised to support in an intensive way, the exchanges of knowledge between the different participants and communities, to create their own international profile. In the same manner, the organization of ad-hoc workshops and training schools will be supported to offer the most positive environment for the early stage researchers and researchers from different communities.
