Capacity, Opportunity and Desire in Heritage Language Variation (CODE-V) offers a novel approach, never used in this capacity in this context before, to examine a significantly understudied natural laboratory population of heritage language bilingualism (HLB). Moving above and beyond the current state-of-the-art in HLB studies, CODE-V works with high-performing heritage language speakers (HHSs) and aims to understand the relationship between their heritage language (HL) competence and nature of their HL experience through the lens of their community center engagement patterns. Through its novel adaptation of sociocultural/educational framework, CODE-V examines this severely understudied HLB context, decoding in a systematic way: (i) formal and informal Capacity (C) development activities, social/cultural Opportunity (O) creation efforts, and individual/parental Desires (D); (ii) what underlying linguistic competence HHSs possess and (iii) how such linguistic competence develops and changes over time and across generations in relation to the relative weighting of linguistic and environmental factors (i.e., community center engagement) that predict their HHS status. CODE-V maintains that studying one extreme end of the HL outcome continuum will be a unique position to offer novel evidence addressing the variation in HL outcomes that has posed challenges to our understanding of native language acquisition and the role of input. CODE-V’s findings, both formal/theoretical, methodological and societal/sociolinguistic, will make significant contributions to a more complete picture of bilingualism, heritage language bilingualism more specifically, and its societal dynamics, for theory building as well as addressing HSs’ societal and educational needs.

To set out future-proof pathways to strengthen democracy through improving accountability, transparency and effectiveness of media production and expanding active and inclusive citizenship, the project aims to clarify the extent to which certain media under which conditions perform which democratic functions for which audiences, thus making it apparent what is at stake for democratic media - and for democracy itself. By applying an innovative multi-method design consisting of data science methods, large-scale quantitative analyses, in-depth qualitative approaches and participatory action research, the project will cover (1) perspectives of both representative and participatory notions of democracy as they exist in European societies, (2) the entire range of news media, regardless of distribution channel, mandate, ownership and source of financing, (3) the legal and (self-)regulatory framework under which media houses and journalism operate and people use media, (4) the media's potential to promote and support political participation (supply side), and (5) the media use patterns, communication needs and democratic attitudes of the audiences (demand side) in all EU Member States. Based on the research results, an interactive multi-layer map of European political information environments will be created, whose layers reflect the legal and regulatory framework and the democratically relevant features of media supply and demand. In addition, the obtained “real” map is to be confronted with a map of how European citizens envision the future media landscapes. By comparing these maps, conclusions can be drawn from congruencies and discrepancies between them, good practice examples can be identified and guidelines can be derived to support developments that promote democracy and counteract phenomena that may jeopardize democracy. These guidelines will be addressed to policymakers, regulators, self-regulation bodies, media houses, journalists, NGOs and citizens.

Extreme aquatic environments account with a vast and yet largely unexplored biodiversity that holds immense potential for novel active biomolecules with multiple industrial applications. However, the harsh and challenging conditions such as accessibility, environmental hazards, ineffective or inaccurate sampling techniques, and poor bioprospecting pose significant obstacles to their exploration and sampling. Overcoming these challenges is crucial for unlocking the potential of extremophiles to benefit society. The EXPLORA project will depart from two extreme aquatic ecosystems selected such as the acidic Rio Tinto in Spain and the psychrophilic Antarctic Region. By developing innovative, accurate, and sustainable tailor-made sampling methods, employing cutting-edge bioprospecting techniques, and utilising state-of-the-art analytical tools for isolation of bioactive substances, in the EXPLORA project it is expected to find and isolate microorganisms which produce novel antimicrobial and antioxidants compounds, sialylated extracellular polymeric substances and, plastic-degrading acidophilic enzymes which applicability will be validated for pharmaceutical, cosmetic, nutraceutical, and for PET recycling purposes, respectively. Additionally, deeper understanding on the legal frameworks in the planned contexts such as the Nagoya Protocol and Antarctic Treaty Legal Requirements is also envisaged. By achieving these objectives, EXPLORA will contribute to the sustainable exploration of biodiversity hotspot regions, advancing the development of next-generation sampling methods, expanding bioprospecting from the screening for new chemicals into biological function, and contributing to the understanding of potential trade-offs inherent in the exploitation of ocean and other aquatic biodiversity.

Photonic pigments are one of the most exciting topics in optics as they are expected to lead to a pure and brilliant colouration free from chemical- or photo-bleaching, which is a central goal in the future developments of paints, cosmetics, displays, and advanced photonic devices. Till now most efforts have been focused on amorphous packings of colloidal crystals, but limitations of synthesizing large quantities of photonic pigments based on these arrays are only beginning to emerge. Novel materials and approaches are thus necessary and, in this context, COLOUR aims to develop bio-inspired photonic pigments via the combination of structural colouration and light absorption. The key approach is to exploit the 3D self-assembly of block copolymers in concentric lamellar structures to generate full-spectrum photonic crystals with high reflectivity and angular independence, coupling these with broad-band absorbers to ensure colour purity and vividness. Specifically, high-visibility structural colour able to address the limitations of current photonic pigments will be achieved by altering four variables, namely size, blackness, refractive index, and arrangement of the nano-elements. COLOUR will rely on my competencies in polymer processing and characterization and the expertise of the host supervisors Prof. Ullrich Steiner and Prof. Christoph Weder in the domain of soft matter physics, polymer self-assembly, supramolecular polymers and materials science (outgoing phase, Adolphe Merkle Institute, University of Fribourg - Switzerland), and Prof. Davide Comoretto in photonics (incoming phase, Department of Chemistry and Industrial Chemistry, University of Genova – Italy). COLOUR offers me the unique opportunity to acquire technical skills and experiences in several scientific fields that will be crucial to advance my career towards an independent academic position, as well as exposure to a technological problem of significant scientific, societal, and technological impact.

The objective of this project is to support the EC in defining topics and measures to strengthen the position of Europe in the global value chain of semiconductor and semiconductor-based photonics, by focussed cooperation initiatives with other leading semiconductor regions. The starting point will be the identification of European and non-EU industrial strengths and gaps in the field of semiconductors with the support of industrial organization, while emerging technologies will be explored through the participation of leading research centres. The project will profit of already existing international cooperation initiatives among regions, like ITRS2 and IRDS, to define possible cooperation areas and modes. ICOS will also benefit from a project leader who has matured extensive experience in the coordination of 6 EU projects in the field of semiconductors. As a result, the project will provide advice to the EC on joint actions to be implemented with leading semiconductor countries to reinforce the European position, supported by an in depth analysis of risks vs. expected benefits. The actions may include exchange of research results, joint research activities, researchers’ exchange programs and joint definition of standards. A proper dissemination of results will take place through joint events and participation to main conferences of the sector, both European and international.

The outbreak of the pandemic created unprecedented challenges for galleries, libraries, archives and museums (GLAMs), which were already struggling during the last years with issues of underfunding, increased maintenance and operational costs and challenges imposed by over-tourism. The COVID-19 pandemic served as a wake-up call to rethink how cultural production and consumption are organized and articulated with different sets of actors and local contexts, towards safeguarding sustainability, access and the well-being of the sector, its workforce and surrounding communities. Long before the pandemic crisis, European cultural policy encouraged museums to embrace participatory governance and digitisation (European Commission, 2010 ), become more financially self-reliant and diversify their income-generating activities. It is thus vital to map pre-pandemic practices across the sector, to fully account the pandemic effects on the sector and to explore novel solutions that will inform GLAMs response and adaptation to the post-pandemic era, under a new conceptual paradigm that will advance GLAMs as the agents of change. GLAMMONS project aims to provide answers to the above challenges, fill gaps and advance research and policy employing the theory of the commons to i) provide an in-depth analysis and evaluation of ongoing shifts (with a specific focus on both pandemic-driven transformations and digitalisation) in the field of GLAMs, ii) explore and assess practices (concerning management, finance and participation) that emerge around small scale, community-led GLAMs and the possibility of transferring relevant knowledge to more “established” and traditional ones to provide more sustainability to the sector. Rooted in a track record of internationally recognized research excellence and world-leading practice, GLAMMONS will deliver an ambitious work programme, mainly through a novel conceptual approach: the GLAMs of the commons.

In Western democracies, traditional institutional participation is on the decline while non-institutional participation has been increasing. Non-institutional participation for the climate transition often relies on a prefigurative approach, thus creating spaces to incubate alternative ideas and novel forms of political participation (niches). Empowering these forms of political participation to encourage niche innovations will provoke the radical yet necessary changes in the socio-technical system for a climate transition. The CO-SUSTAIN project seeks to address this opportunity for a democratic climate transition, by defining and testing new democratic pathways enabling local policymakers to support various and novel forms of political participation and empowering citizens to act for a sustainable transition. To develop a better understanding of political participation linked to environmental, political and societal imperatives, CO-SUSTAIN will study 18 historic examples in 6 different European countries for each of the latent and manifest forms of political participation underlined by Ekman: involvement, civic engagement, formal political participation, and activism. It will use institutional ethnography and system mapping to understand the dynamics of the participation and its management, thus delivering best practices to stimulate and support political participation around these imperatives. These best practices will serve to define interventions for solution co-creation in 4 case studies, one for each form of political participation: involvement through Spanish energy communities, civic engagement through Food Solidarity in Turin (IT), manifest political participation through participatory processes promoted by the government in Northern Europe (EE, FI) and activism through the Lobau Bleibt social movement (AT). The outputs and outcomes of the deliberations will be assessed to draw conclusions for more democratic climate policymaking across Europe.

D-EMU provides highly innovative research on a crucial challenge for democracy in the EU: the legitimacy of governance in the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU). It focuses on conflicts within everyday democratic practices of domestic policy elites participating in the budgetary exercise of the European Semester – identifying a substantial gap in the literature so far. Developing an innovative interdisciplinary approach and using a mixed methods design analysing four cases (France, Germany, the Netherlands and Italy), D-EMU contributes a) to our understanding of the variation of legitimacy conflicts in the EMU and jumpstarts b) a debate about contextualised democracy standards for EU decision-making. The project combines ethnographic and reflexive quantitative methods with conceptual history. D-EMU commits to data sustainability in qualitative research by providing a report on the research process in order to make the qualitative data fully reusable by qualitative scholars. D-EMU is led by Dr Anja Thomas at the Fulda University of Applied Sciences under the supervision of Prof. Dr Claudia Wiesner, a renowned scholar for conceptual history of the European Union. Two secondments (European University Institute and Centre for Research in Economics and Statistics) complement the Fellowship to allow specific methods and dissemination training. Supervision will be closely coordinated; a detailed work and dissemination plan ensure progress and sustainable impact of the project. The MSCA will expand Dr Anja Thomas’ current work on parliaments and make it a beneficial preparation for a larger grant proposal to allow her to become a leader in her field. Fulda University of Applied Sciences commits to fully support the fellow with administrative and additional financial resources, the researcher will contribute to the PhD training at her host institution. Dr Anja Thomas has substantial experience in research and teaching at leading universities, notably in France and the UK.
