bilateral cooperation Czech research team foreign partner team

MOBILITY Activity – Aims and Goals

strengthening the international scientific cooperation

assistance in establishing and developing contacts between researchers and scientists

support of the mobility of researchers working on international research projects

bolstering mutual relations between countries through scientific and technological cooperation

contribution to the increasing ofgeneral knowledge
