Stakeholder feedback
Top 5 most frequent comments on MCAs:
1. One of the most successful programmes; call for an increase of the budget allocated
2. Knowledge triangle to be reinforced
3. Importance of mobility
4. Bottom-up approach
5. Streamlining
'The Marie Curie scheme is one of the most efficient programmes, both in terms of
support from the scientific community and of outcome in reinforcing the quality and excellence of scientific staff. Compared to many other programmes in H2020, it has a
long and proven track record.' (LERU)
‘The Marie Curie scheme has been particularly successful in encouraging the
mobility of researchers across the European Research Area, and providing
valuable research training for the predominantly young researchers who
form the future of the EU's science base.' (UK Higher Education Sector)
‘The MCA research training and mobility programme is one of the clear success
stories ofthe previous Framework Programmes. It
has effectively reached out to and gainedrespectability amongst the research
community.' (VRWI)
