STSM and ITC Grants
Short Term Scientific Missions (STSMs)
Short Term Scientific Missions (STSMs) are exchange visits aimed at supporting researchers’ individual mobility, strengthening existing networks and fostering collaboration.
STSMs finance researchers participating in EUROMIC to go to a legal entity based in a COST Full/Cooperating Member, an European RTD or a NNC (according to the Annotated Rules) to perform research that contributes to the goals of this action.
Inclusiveness Target Countries (ITC) Grants
ITC Grants aim at supporting Young Researchers and Innovators affiliated in an Inclusiveness Target Country (ITC) or Near Neighbour Country (NNC) to attend and present their work in international science and technology related conferences.
The conference can take place anywhere in the world (face to face) or virtually. They serve COST Excellence and Inclusiveness Policy.
