Topic description
• Specific challenge: The specific challenge is to
address networking gaps and deficiencies between
the research institutions of the low performing
Member States and regions and internationallyleading counterparts at EU level. Driven by the quest
for excellence, research intensive institutions tend to
collaborate increasingly in closed groups, producing a
crowding-out effect for a large number of promising
institutions. This is the challenge that a specific
Twinning action will try to address.
Topic description
Expected impact: There will be a measurable and significant
improvement in the overall scientific and innovation capacity of the
initiating institution in a particular field of research through linking
with research intensive counterpart institutions in other Member
States and thereby expect positive impacts on the overall research
and innovation potential of the Member State or the region the
initiating institution is located in. Such improvement could be
measured through an increase of peer-reviewed publications,
increased impact factors in terms of citations etc.
Impact indicators should reflect an increase in relative terms based on
the situation before the project compared to the projected
situation immediately after the project is completed, as well as
within the foreseeable future after completion. These indicators are
important for determining the potential regional and national
impact, as well as long-term sustainability and viability of the
beneficiary organisations.

• What is the expected duration of short-term staff
exchanges and/or expert visits? Are they limited to
a few weeks? A few months?
• There is no pre-defined duration for short term staff
exchanges or expert visits. They should however, add
value to the project and they should last for a
reasonable timeframe of a few weeks or a few
months; more than 9 months would probably be
considered as too long
