About
The Project
Towards a new EU-LAC partnership in Research Infrastructures (EU-LAC ResInfra)
ResInfra pursues the construction of a bi-regional collaboration between European Union and the LAC countries, envisaging a range of different activities that will contribute to this aim.
Firstly, the project will create a map of National and Regional Research Infrastructures policies, with the objective of identifying eligible research infrastructures upon which to build this bi-regional collaboration.
Additionally, the project will develop four pilot projects, building on existing European Research Infrastructures, each in an area of knowledge identified as a priority for the scientific cooperation between the EU and LAC:
INSTRUCT-ERIC
in the field of Structural Biology
E-RIHS
in the field of Cultural heritage
RICAP
for the transdisciplinary application of computation
LifeWatch-ERIC
in the field of ecosystems and biodiversity
Finally, the project will produce a Sustainability plan, including specific action aimed to support this be-regional collaboration in the medium term, as well as an analysis of research infrastructures’ capacity and feasibility.
The main outcome of the project will be the development of a stable framework of cooperation and a roadmap that will:
- promote the internationalization of RIs from both regions,
- reinforce EU-LAC cooperation
- and perform human capital development and capacity building
More specifically, by making use of extant collaboration experience, the resulting framework of cooperation will promote joint research actions and facilitate access to high level scientific instruments, methods and data, as well as the exchange of best practices regarding research infrastructures management.
