The Project brings together Universities, R&D
institutions, SME support facilities from EU-15, NMS as well as IPA to
prepare and create the first automotive network in South East Europe. The
second level clustering activities proposed by the project are strictly
oriented on the activities, which are improving the innovation capacities in
the region and improve technology and know-how transfer - improving the
innovation circle. The project in the first stage analyses the cluster's
development and best practices across the regions as well as creating the
connection with other existing European activities in the automotive
clustering. The project focuses highly towards producing concrete results and
addresses the main challenges that are particularly specific for SEE region,
particularly the same across the whole EU territory. |
The project is built up on experience from
previous activities in Automotive industry (NEAC, Automotive Clusters,
Belcar, TCAS, I-CAR-O) and in line with EU policies, especially in clustering
and automotive industry. The framework's project aims to: |
- Create the first sustainable network in
automotive industry in SEE region with specific focus on innovation
activities |
- Create partnerships which consist of
institutions from New Member States, non-EU members as well as well
experienced institutions from EU-15 |
- Invite in the network not just clusters and
other SME supporting facilities but directly also R&D institutions and
universities |
- Improve innovative capability by realizing
studies of innovation capacities, exhibition in universities and
dissemination outputs of our activities, exchange studies and networking
activities |
- Prove the concept by realizing the project
samples and by generating of the proposals to FP7 |

DIVERSITY is a support action - type project
funded by the European Commission within the 7th Framework Programme for
research and technological development and addresses to the Capacities
programme, part 5 Science in Society, activity 5.2.1. Gender and Research,
thematic area 5.2.1.1. Strengthening the role of women in scientific
research. The project has started on the 1st of January 2009 and will last 36
months. |
|
This consortium aims to tackle the problem of
under-representation of women in decision-making by fostering the change in
institutional culture and changing the attitudes with regard to gender
diversity in materials research organisations. In this way a more stimulating
research environment in the spirit of the European Charter for Researchers
and the Code of Conduct for their Recruitment will be achieved. |
|
The central goal of the project is to identify the
effective methods, policies and mechanisms in order to support women
scientists in relation to their access to decision-making positions in the
sphere of materials research, which traditionally is a male-dominated
scientific field. Commitment to the promotion of women to the highest level
of research is anchored at the topmost political and institutional level in
DIVERSITY project. |

Gender equality in science is not simply a
question of fairness. To strengthen research...total human capital must be
utilised. |
