Planting the seeds for research collaboration (CIVIS Days 2026) Planting the seeds for research collaboration (CIVIS Days 2026) =============================================================== - Communication and Dissemination - Research & Innovation - Audiovisual materials - Academics - Researchers This session showcased research projects developed as part of the CIVIS seed-funding call with the aim tto reflect on the benefits and limitations of this type of initiative in implementing long-term research collaborations across the Alliance. Following the presentation of four significant projects selected from calls launched over the last two years and representing the diversity of initiatives supported (e.g., early-career researchers training, citizen science projects, transdisciplinary networks, etc.), an open discussion with the audience provided the opportunity to reflect on the challenges and leverage points of this type of initiative in institutionalising and sustaining collaborations at the level of a European alliance. **Speakers:** - **Delia Popescu** - UB - **Adriana Ștefănel** - UB - I**onela Băluță** - UB - **Nolwenn Bühler** - UNIL (online) **Moderator: Julie Hyzewicz**, Head of CIVIS Research Unit For more information on CIVIS Research, visit the dedicated page on the website.
