  • ? Funding difficulties at this space time

14
Aims Means needs
  • Financial
  • Funding agency for comparative research projects
  • Availability of funding for initiatives from the
    scientific community (and civil society)

Project Meeting management

  • Concentration on the inclusion of participants
  • Too little social scientific research in many New
    Member States
  • Participants perspective
  • High reciprocal interest in the issue
  • Very fruitful discussion on potential projects
  • Little chance of funding in 2006 hampers
    cooperation
  • High motivation for further cooperation

18
Project Meeting outlook
  • Content
  • One project proposal outlined in the common
    discussion
  • Formal application as a research network with
    EUMC in preparation
  • Online publication of working paper series
  • Framework
  • Professional and personal links strengthened /
    created
  • Milestones set for enhanced future collaboration
  • A project conference including more partners from
    even more countries planned

Project Meeting evaluation
  • Challenging
  • Lack of perspective for project proposal in 2006
  • Complex and potentially difficult research field
  • Positive
  • Content exchange innovative and substantial
