EFIMED - European Forest Institute Mediterranean Regional Office
EFI Mediterranean Regional Office – EFIMED – is the first EFI Regional Office and will be leading the way for other potential Regional Offices across Europe in the coming years. The creation of EFIMED has been a natural evolution thanks to the active network of EFI Project Centre MEDFOREX. Spain, being one of the ratifying countries, has shown its interest to support international forest research and networking by initially providing funding to EFIMED for the next five years. The high level of motivation within the network and the solid core funding provide EFIMED with a viable start. The aim of EFIMED is to coordinate and promote research and networking on Mediterranean forests, forestry and forest products. EFIMED will increase potential for funding forest research in the Mediterranean area. It will also improve the ability to respond efficiently to research needs and challenges related to the conservation and management of Mediterranean forests.
INCO-CONNECT: A collaborative platform for all INCONETs
A new website INCO-CONNECT permits to provide information about international cooperation in the 7th Framework Programme for: - INCONTACT: this is the official Network of National Contact Points (NCP) for International Scientific Cooperation Activities (INCO) funded in the 7th Framework Programme of the EU (more info at: http://www.ncp-incontact.eu) - NETWATCH: this is a European information platform on transnational R&D programme collaboration, with an initial focus on the ERA-NET scheme. (development platform available at: http://netwatch.jrc.ec.europa.eu/nw/) - ERA-LEARN: This support action will assist the ERA-NET Learning Platform (launched by the Commission in 2008) by generating tools that will be made available via NETWATCH to the whole ERA-NET community, such as a toolbox "Call Implementation", recommendations for evaluation standards and funding modes, definition of assessment criteria for internal review of ERA-NET participation etc. - ILN (International Learning Network): this is an initiative from the European Commission; representatives from various INCO projects are invited regularly to discuss specific topics of common interest. - INCONets Synergies Workgroup: exchange of information on INCO-NET coordinators level (more information at:http://www.miraproject.eu/INCONets-synergies-public-area) Besides these initiatives some other groups have emerged, such as the Network of INCO-NET coordinators, or non-official cooperations between organisations such as initiatives in the field of administration or dissemination. INCO-CONNECT is a community platform for the people and organisations working in INCO projects; the various INCO-NETs, ERA-NETs, BILATs and ACCESS4EUs. At the moment the platform comprises: - all INCO projects (with links to the relevant websites to avoid duplication of information) - all organisations working in INCO-projects - all people working in the projects (and those that have been working there in the past) - a document repository with a collection of public deliverables - a collection of news and events (from those projects that offer RSS and Ical feeds) - working groups in thematic fields (with moderation): - coordinators - analysts - disseminators - administrators - FP7 trainers
