One of the aims of NORTIA, the Jean Monnet Network on Research & Teaching in EU Foreign Affairs, is to promote Phd students and early career researchers. In early 2018 NORTIA - with the support of UACES - opened a competitive call for its PhD bursaries and early-career researcher bursaries to visit one of the NORTIA partner institutions for a 2-3 months research stay. The aim of the residencies is the provide research and training support, but also to facilitate the creation of strong networks and opportunities for future research collaborations.
After a competitive selection process, we are very pleased to congratulate following colleagues to their NORTIA early-career residencies 2018:
