Dear Working Group Member,
The R&D and Human Resources Working Group are pleased to invite you to a meeting with the Chief Country Representative of EURAXESS China - Researchers in Motion, to have an exchange session about international talent mobility in the academic and corporate world. While the mobility of international talents between China and abroad has always been one of the advocacy points of the R&D working group position papers in the past years, this year under the influences of the pandemic, the mobility of researchers has met even more serious challenges. The EURAXESS is a unique pan-European initiative delivering information and support services to professional researchers. Backed by the European Union, member states and associated countries, it supports researcher mobility and career development, while enhancing scientific collaboration between Europe and the world. During the presentation, the Chief Country Representative of EURAXESS China, Mr. Halldor Berg, will touch upon several topics such as their study on researchers mobility from Europe to China stretching back 10 years and how it is developing, the impact of COVID-19 on European researchers’ mobility in China, its consequences and main lessons, and some of EURAXESS’s activities.
