Researchers - cluster members
Before starting : What are EU GREEN clusters?
In EU GREEN, research is organized in 6 thematic clusters in EU GREEN (under the umbrella of Work Package 3 - Research ) :
Cluster 1 - Emerging paradigms for health and well-being
Cluster 2 - Agriculture, food, and environmental sustainability
Cluster 3 - Engineering and technology for sustainable development
Cluster 4 - Sustainable tourism for cultural and natural heritage
Cluster 5 - Education sciences for sustainable development
Cluster 6 - Challenges in ecosystem biodiversity and function. A macroregional evaluation.
The Research Week will include meetings of these clusters, as well as cross-cluster meetings in order to foster interdisciplinary collaboration and synergies across the alliance. Researchers are, by default, considered Cluster Members. Participants to the Research Week can join the cluster whose thematic scope most closely aligns with their research areas and priorities.

Monday 1st of June
Arrival day. Additional cluster meetings, team meetings, or visits.

- 14:00 - 15:30: Workshops
- Closing the gender gap in Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, Medecine (STEMM): the workshop aims to raise awareness of challenges that are commonly faced by women at different stages of professional development in STEMM, and to discuss possible solutions via sharing personal experiences and lessons from researchers across different disciplines, as well as best practices from several mentoring, coaching and networking initiatives for females in STEMM at OVGU. It will contribute to networking and building a community of female researchers in EU GREEN and their male allies in making the educational and work environment gender-inclusive and safe, such that it enables women to fully develop their potential as researchers and leaders in the STEMM domain.
- Impact in European research projects - by Angela Kipf, EU GREEN Impact & quality manager, and Martina Hagen, Head of the European Division at Otto-von-Guericke Magdeburg. The participants will get an overview of what a competitive Horizon Europe project proposal needs to address in the section on impact. Additionally, they will have an opportunity to put this knowledge into practice by supervised developing of a concept that could serve as the basis of impact section in a proposal addressing a topic of their choosing
