Joint Research

Academic faculty from ALUM universities have been meeting at ALUM events to discuss papers and a potential joint research project. There have been five ALUM conferences to date.
Several ALUM members have submitted joint applications under the Horizon2020 call in early February 2017.
Similarly, four other joint project bids are close to being submitted for final calls:
-
A proposal for Open Society Foundations on innovative approaches for higher education for refugees.
-
A call by Volkswagen and Wellcome Foundations.
-
A London School of Economics internal call on Migration policy issues, where the joint project looks at birth registration issues.
-
A migration proposal for a 'Jean Monnet Project' call.
