Programme description

Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions include co-funding of regional, national and international programmmes that fund or manage doctoral programmes or fellowships, with the aim of boosting the international and intersectorial dimensions and supporting researchers’ career development.

There are two types of COFUND projects types based on experience of researchers:

• For COFUND Doctoral Programmes (DP) researchers must be early-stage researchers (ESR), i.e. at the date of recruitment or the deadline of the co-funded programme’s call, be in the first four years (fulltime equivalent research experience) of their research careers and have not been awarded a doctoral degree.
• For COFUND Fellowship Programmes (FP) researchers must be experienced researchers (ER), i.e. at the date of recruitment or the deadline of the co-funded programme’s call, be in possession of a doctoral degree or have at least four years of full-time equivalent research experience.

Mobility rule: Researchers supported under this scheme shall comply with the mobility rules of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions: researchers may not have resided or carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc.) in the country of their host organisation for more than 12 months in the 3 years immediately before the call deadline, or recruitment date (COFUND).
