The three bilateral funding programmes “Aktionen” support cooperation and transnational mobility in the tertiary sector between Austria and the three neighbouring countries Slovakia, Czech Republic and Hungary. The focus is on the support of young researchers. The different funding initiatives can be summarised as follows:
- Transnational mobility through scholarship programmes
- Bilateral co-operation projects
- Promotion of the acquisition of the language of the neighbouring countries
Depending on the “Aktion” and the funding programme there are up to four calls for applications per year. Bilateral committees decide on the selection of projects and the awarding of scholarships during meetings at regular intervals.
