Research and Innovation projects through mobility, the MSCA Staff Exchanges call is open

The 2024 call is open until 5 February 2025. 
The call selects international consortia of universities, research institutions, businesses, SMEs and other non-academic organizations to exchange their staff for up to 12 months. LAC institutions are eligible to join any consortium to submit a proposal.

Objective of Staff Exchanges:

The SE action funds short-term international and inter-sectoral exchanges of staff members involved in research and innovation activities of participating organizations. The aim is to develop sustainable collaborative projects between different organizations from the academic and non-academic sectors (in particular SMEs), based in Europe and beyond. Exchanged staff benefit from new knowledge, skills and career development perspectives, while participating organizations increase their research and innovation capacities.

Such a project must explore activities that can be based on previous work but should go beyond and generate or strengthen long-term collaborations.

Previously known as Research and Innovation Staff Exchanges (RISE), these exchanges offer unique opportunities for researchers and innovators. They can use Staff Exchanges actions to enlarge their networks, share knowledge and turn cutting-edge research into innovative products and services.

MSCA Staff exchanges projects:

Staff Exchanges projects can last up to four years. The mobility of seconded staff members can last from one month to one year. Staff involved should return to their sending organizations after the secondment, to pass on the knowledge they gained during their secondments. Staff exchanges between organizations in EU Member States or Horizon Europe Associated Countries are required to be between different sectors (academic or non-academic), except if they are interdisciplinary. For partnerships with non-associated Third Countries (such as LAC), exchanges within the same sector and the same discipline are allowed.

Eligibility to submit a MSCA SE proposal:

The MSCA Staff Exchanges call is open to international consortia of universities, research institutions, businesses, SMEs and other non-academic organizations.

Consortia need to include:

  • at least three organizations in three different countries, two of which need to be located in a different EU Member States or countries associated to Horizon Europe;
  • above this minimum, the participation of organizations from any country is possible;
  • if all participating organizations are from the same sector (academic or non-academic), at least one must be from a non-associated Third Country such as all LAC countries.

In the case of MSCA SE, only legal entities that are established in EU Member States or Horizon Europe Associated Countries can be beneficiaries.
Organizations from LAC (and from everywhere else) and from any sectors can join any consortium to submit a proposal. LAC institutions join the consortia as associated partners.

Eligibility to funding

Remember: Organisations from LAC (and from everywhere else) and from any sectors can join any consortium to submit a proposal.  They receive and send* staff at no cost. 

In the case of institutions from Bahamas, Barbados, Brazil*, Chile, Mexico, Panama, Trinidad and Tobago and Uruguay, they are eligible to participate but they must fund their own participation or bring their co-funding. They still host visiting researchers from Europe at no cost.
