Programme CEFRES – IFS – SAV pour des séjours en France de recherche en sciences humaines et sociales

L’Ambassade de France en Slovaquie, l’Institut français de Slovaquie et l’Académie slovaque des sciences proposent en coopération avec le Centre français de recherche en sciences sociales (CEFRES) et le groupement de recherche « Connaissance de l’Europe médiane » (CEM) un programme de soutien aux séjours scientifiques dans le domaine des sciences humaines et sociales en France durant l’année 2023. Ce programme est destiné aux jeunes chercheurs travaillant dans les instituts et centres de l’Académie slovaque des sciences. L’objectif de ce programme est de soutenir les coopérations franco-slovaques dans ce domaine, par un séjour de recherche de deux mois, avec le soutien scientifique du partenaire français, des équipes du CEFRES et des membres du CEM. En conséquence, les candidatures seront déposées individuellement par les jeunes chercheurs, mais le soutien affiché par des membres du CEFRES et du CEM sera un élément primordial de leur évaluation. L’ambition du programme est de faire émerger des synergies de recherche durables entre partenaires français et slovaques travaillant en réseaux de collaboration sur des objets de recherche innovants et interdisciplinaires en sciences sociales et humaines.
