This aims to stimulate regional, national or international programmes to foster excellence in researchers’ training, mobility and career development. This will be achieved by co-funding new or existing regional, national and international programmes to open up to and provide for international, intersectoral and interdisciplinary research training, as well as transnational and cross-sectoral mobility of researchers at all stages of their career. Applications may be submitted for:

•MSCA-COFUND-DP doctoral programmes;

•MSCA-COFUND-FP fellowship programmes.

Beneficiaries in these programmes must be legal entities established in an EU member state or associated country, including Switzerland, that fund or manage doctoral or fellowship programmes for researchers. All H2020 funding calls allow third country partners who secure their own funding to participate in consortia.

The remuneration costs provided for researchers recruited under an employment contract will not be lower than €2,597 for early-stage researchers and €3,675 for experienced researchers. The remuneration costs provided for researchers recruited under a status equivalent to a fixed-amount fellowship will be at least €1,298 for early-stage researchers and €1,837 for experienced researchers. Funding will support eligible researchers for a minimum of three months. The indicative budget for this call is €80 million.
