  CIVIS3i is officially launched!
=================================

General

1 June 2021

 Aix-Marseille Université, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Université libre de Bruxelles, and Sapienza University of Rome are delighted to officially launch "CIVIS3i", winner of the European call for projects COFUND - Fellowship Programme 2020 in the framework of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions - H2020.

What is CIVIS3i?
----------------

The new CIVIS3i project, entitled "**The CIVIS Alliance Programme for International, Interdisciplinary, Intersectoral Research and Training for Experienced Researchers**", will enable the establishment of an **integrated CIVIS-wide post-doctoral attraction, mobility and training programme**. This will be done in coherence with the structuring actions set up by the CIVIS research program (RIS4CIVIS).

CIVIS3i is designed to attract **32 talented researchers from all over the world to CIVIS**, by providing a favorable environment for conducting excellent research, training adapted to

These researchers, selected through two calls for applications, will benefit from **24-month postdoctoral fellowships**. They will have to present an ambitious research project, responding to the three "***i***" of CIVIS3i: ***i***nternational, ***i***nterdisciplinary and ***i***ntersectoral.

- The international component of these research projects may include the secondment of the post-doctoral fellow to a CIVIS partner university for defined periods, thus strengthening the research links within the Alliance.
- As part of the intersectoral dimension promoted by the CIVIS3i program, post-doctoral fellows will have access to a network of 24 non-academic partner organizations from the Alliance countries.

Implementation of the project
-----------------------------

Officially launched on 1 June 2021 and with a budget of more than 2.3 million euros (co-financed by the H2020 programme and the A\*Midex Foundation), the **CIVIS3i project is coordinated by Aix-Marseille Université** (Research and Valorisation Department, with the support of Protisvalor Méditerranée and the A\*Midex Foundation) and brings together three other CIVIS partners

- **Université libre de Bruxelles**
- **Universidad Autónoma de Madrid**
- **Sapienza University of Rome**

A first recruitment campaign for post-doctoral fellows will be organized in the fall of 2021, followed by a second campaign in 2022.

What benefits can the Alliance bring in the context of a joint response to the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- **Increased visibility** of our laboratories at the European level
- Possibility of **exchange of post-doctoral students** selected within the Alliance reinforcement of mobility and intra-CIVIS collaborations
- **Attractiveness of CIVIS** outside the consortium
