TNA and NOA mobility grants of the ITSERR project
Third call for applications for the TNA and NOA mobility grants of the ITSERR project
Applications are now open for the Transnational Access (TNA) and National Open Access (NOA) Fellowship Programme of ITSERR – Italian Strengthening of the ESFRI Research Infrastructure RESILIENCE, funded by the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR).
Promoted by a consortium of five higher education institutions, the ITSERR project takes a strongly interdisciplinary approach, aiming to integrate humanities disciplines—such as theology, history, philology, archaeology, and religious studies (Christian, Jewish, and Islamic)—with advanced digital and IT skills.
These mobility grants are intended for scholars and researchers, as well as research groups, that are interested in contributing to the technical and scientific development of RESILIENCE.
The programme offers:
- coverage of travel and accommodation expenses at one of the host institutions participating in the project;
- free access to collections, archives, and digital resources provided by the partner institutions;
- high-level scientific support for researchers involved in ITSERR work packages.
The maximum duration of the stay is four weeks, and it must be completed by the end of September 2025.
The call is open from May 5, 2025, with no fixed deadline.
Criteria
Applications for the TNA and NOA scholarships will be evaluated competitively, taking into account the scientific quality of the proposed project, the clarity of the personal statement, and the transnational and interdisciplinary scope of the initiative.
In this context, proposals from research groups composed of members with diverse disciplinary backgrounds and international affiliations will be particularly valued.
Host institutions
ITSERR is a consortium of five partners located across Italy:
- Institute of Information Science and Technologies "Alessandro Faedo" (ISTI-CNR) in Pisa, affiliated with the National Research Council (CNR)
- University of Modena and Reggio Emilia (UniMORE)
- University of Naples "L'Orientale" (UniOr)
- University of Palermo (UniPa)
